iQOO Z1, First Dimensity 1000+ Smartphone Leaked in Photos
A Weibo blogger has exposed spy photos of the new iQOO Z1. It is suspected to come with the Dimensity 1000+...many users think if the iQOO Neo 3 is replaced by the Dimensity 1000+, most other parameters will remain unchanged. So the price may be lower. (Giz China – China Gadget Reviews, May 10)
Hanish Bhatia's key takeaways:
- The Dimensity 1000+ is the world’s first smartphone SoC to integrate an AV1 hardware decoder – important as AV1 adoption has been restricted to browser and platform level so far. This is first hardware integration in smartphone category.
- Arguably, an AV1 SoC-enabled smartphone will deliver a better YouTube/Netflix viewing experience – which would encompass not only better quality, but less data consumption and more battery life.
- Currently, we think it unlikely Qualcomm, Apple and Samsung will integrate AV1 in their SoC, as chip vendors remain key licensors of royalty-based HEVC codec.
