MediaTek Introduces Helio P25 with support for Dual-Camera Smartphones

With new budget smartphones like Honor 6X and Cool 1 launching with dual camera setup. MediaTek today announced the launch of its MediaTek Helio P25, the newest addition to the MediaTek Helio P series mobile processor family. The new chipset combines the power of 16nm Octa-core processing with MediaTek Imagiq – a superior Image Signal Processor (ISP) technology and dual camera features to satisfy smartphone photographers.

MediaTek Helio P25 is designed to offer high-end camera features that take full advantage of today’s dual camera smartphones. The MediaTek Helio P25 12bit Dual ISP offers:

  • Up to 24MP single camera or 13MP+13MP dual camera
  • Dual Camera-optimized: Color + Mono de-noise and real-time shallow DoF bokeh
  • Video HDR with full preview
  • High-Performance Auto Exposure: Turbo 3A to accelerate AE convergence speed by 30-55%

“MediaTek Helio P25 paves the way for high-resolution and feature-rich smartphone cameras that enable amazing static shots and 4K2K videos,” said Jeffrey Ju, Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer at MediaTek. “Supporting two cameras up to 13MP each, the MediaTek Helio P25 redefines expectations for mobile photography and our multimedia features like MediaTek MiraVision technology, continuously enhance visual user experiences.”

By adopting a 16nm FinFET process node, MediaTek Helio P25 offers up to 25% better power efficiency. The Octa-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor clocked at up to 2.5GHz delivers more power while using less energy than competing solutions. On the graphics side, MediaTek Helio P25 benefits from the recent ARM Mali-T880 dual GPU clocked at up to 900MHz.

The newly released chipset supports enhanced uploads in LTE (up to 64QAM uplink for LTE-TDD mode) and has advanced power efficiency features, including compatibility with MediaTek’s Envelope Tracking Modulator to deliver more processing power and less heat. MediaTek Helio P25 further Supports up to 6GB RAM (LPDDR4x).
