Xiaomi establishes dedicated chip platform department to advance its in-house chip ambitions

CPU looks good but the interesting thing to me is the GPU

The GPU side could be more competitive. The chip reportedly integrates an Imagination Technologies IMG DXT72 GPU at 1.3GHz, which early estimates claim may outperform the Adreno 740 in Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

Same family of GPU as reported for the upcoming Pixel 10. Performance of a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 builds up my expectation of Imagination GPUs return to flagship phones is them as the budget option. I knew Google wouldn't actually use cost savings of vertical integration to compete in price for performance. I bet these Imagination GPUs end up with worse drivers than Mali since they've been so long out of the flagship phone game
