Taiwanese chipmaker MediaTek on Tuesday launched two new system-on-chips (SoCs) -- Helio P23 and Helio P30 -- that are designed to deliver performance, power efficiency, dual camera photography, dual SIM and dual 4G VoLTE capabilities in the premium mid-range smartphones.
"Reaching the mid market means bringing people affordable devices that power and perform with the latest features, like dual-cameras and 4G LTE connectivity," TL Lee, General Manager of MediaTek's Wireless Communication business unit, said in a statement.
"In the rapidly growing arena of new premium mid-range devices, mobile technology innovators know they need to stand out in a crowded field - P23 and P30 enable them to do that," Lee added.
The P23 and P30 bring dual-camera support to the MediaTek Helio line, delivering software and hardware-backed dual-camera features for superior photography experience.
The MediaTek Helio P23 features support for 13+13 megapixel dual-camera setups, while MediaTek Helio P30 supports up to 16+16 megapixels.
Incorporating MediaTek's Imagiq 2.0 technology suite, the chipsets are equipped to minimise aliasing, grain and noise resulting in clear and high-quality images in different lighting conditions.
