Competition
While it offers key upgrades in camera, connectivity, and power efficiency, its CPU and overall performance are not a major leap forward
IT faces its primary competition from other mid-range chipmakers like Qualcomm and Unisoc, and even from MediaTek’s own more capable chips. Given the G200’s status as a minimal refresh of the older Helio G99, several competitors, especially newer entries from Unisoc, offer more compelling features or performance for a similar price
Smartphones
The MediaTek Helio G200 is featured in the Infinix Hot 60 Pro and Infinix Hot 60 Pro+, two new smartphones available in selected territories across Africa.
The devices features 144Hz AMOLED displays and 45W fast charging,
Creek Ma, General Manager of East Africa at Infinix, said MediaTek’s chipset technology has helped the company to create an exciting range of 4G devices.
