It makes sense to invest in a 5G-ready smartphone in 2022 since the 5G era is about to begin. Many 4G cellphones still provide excellent value for the money, though. Due to the dearth of current and effective 4G processors, the majority of firms are now concentrating on producing economical 5G smartphones rather than mid-range 4G devices.
With the incoming Poco M5 4G, the first smartphone to use the Meditek Helio G99, the most potent 4G processor, which is likely to be found on many upcoming mid-range 4G smartphones in India and around the world, this may soon change.
Why Is the Mediatek Helio G99 Unique?

The Helio G99 processor, like the most recent Mediatek Dimensity processors, is manufactured using TSMC's 6nm node, which significantly improves its power efficiency over the Helio G96, which employs a 12nm process. The processor also includes the updated Arm Mali-G57 MC2 GPU and is capable of driving a display with an FHD+ resolution at a 120Hz refresh rate. Two high-performance cores (2.2GHz) based on the Arm Cortex-A76 microarchitecture and six medium-performance cores (2GHz) based on the Arm Cortex-A55 architecture make up the hybrid CPU core cluster of the Mediatek Helio G99. Additionally, the processor enables heterogeneous multi-processing, enabling programmes and games to simultaneously use high- and medium-performance cores.
