OPPO has announced that its upcoming Find X10 Pro Max will be among the first smartphones to feature MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 9600 Pro and will launch in international markets. The announcement, made via Media OutReach Newswire, signals a significant step in the race to deliver more powerful and efficient mobile experiences, particularly as demand for on-device artificial intelligence grows.
At the heart of the Find X10 Pro Max is the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro, built on TSMC’s advanced 2nm N2P process. This new manufacturing technology delivers up to a 61% improvement in CPU multi-core energy efficiency compared to the previous generation. For users, this means longer battery life and more sustained performance, especially during intensive tasks like AI processing and gaming.
The chipset features MediaTek’s All-Big-Core architecture with a new configuration: two 4.55GHz C2-Ultra cores and six performance cores. This setup yields an overall CPU performance improvement of 17%, while independent frequency control for each core allows for more precise workload scheduling. As a result, the Find X10 Pro Max can balance high performance with outstanding power efficiency, a critical factor for modern flagship smartphones.
Graphics performance also sees a substantial boost with the latest flagship G2-Ultra NX GPU, which introduces enhanced ray tracing and new neural graphics capabilities. Under sustained heavy workloads, the Dimensity 9600 Pro delivers approximately 27% higher performance, enabling richer visual detail and more immersive gaming experiences. This is particularly important as mobile gaming continues to evolve with console-quality graphics.
On-device AI receives a major upgrade through a latest-generation dual-NPU design, combining a powerful NPU with a Super Efficient NPU. The high-performance NPU delivers 51% faster LLM prefill performance, supporting workloads such as large-model inference and computational imaging. Meanwhile, the Super Efficient NPU is 40% more power efficient, enabling persistent AI capabilities to run at ultra-low power for more responsive and always-available AI experiences. This dual-NPU approach could set a new standard for how smartphones handle AI tasks without draining the battery.
Further enhancing the platform is the OPPO Laminar Flow Engine, jointly developed by OPPO and MediaTek and making its debut on the Find X10 Pro Max. By restructuring the underlying rendering architecture and coordinating it more closely with system scheduling, the technology achieves a better balance between ultra-smooth system responsiveness and low power consumption. It also helps accelerate app launches and maintain smooth and stable content loading during demanding scenarios such as rapid photo browsing.
The collaboration between OPPO and MediaTek underscores a broader trend in the smartphone industry: the deepening partnership between device makers and chip manufacturers to optimize performance and user experience. As AI becomes more integral to mobile devices, such co-development efforts are likely to become more common.
Further details about the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro, will be revealed at the upcoming global launch event. The device’s international availability highlights OPPO’s commitment to bringing cutting-edge technology to a global audience, potentially intensifying competition in the premium smartphone segment.
