MediaTek's latest Chromebook chipsets balance battery life and power

MediaTek has announced a pair of Chromebook chipsets it says can balance power with improved battery life performance. The company designed the 6nm MT8195 for premium Chromebooks and the 7nm MT8192 for broader use. The four Arm CortexA78 cores handle more resource-intensive apps, while the Arm Cortex-A55 cores take care of background tasks and maximize battery life through power efficiency. A five-core Arm-Mali G57 GPU powers the visuals and the MT8195 includes quad-channel 2133MHz LPDDR4X on the memory side. The chipset can run up to three displays simultaneously, and it supports Dolby Vision and 7.1 surround sound audio.
