The Samsung Galaxy S12 comes with the all-new MediaTek Dimensity 9500 on a 3nm process. If we compare it to the previous Dimensity 9400 Plus in the Tab, it is said to have 61% faster NPU processing, 19% faster CPU performance, and 17% improved GPU output, which would help with gaming performance, multitasking, video editing, and more.
