# MediaTek Dimensity 9600 chipset series launch > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/mediatek-dimensity-9600-chipset-series-launch > Updated: 2026-09-17T10:40:01.000Z. Sources: 81. Developments: 2. MediaTek has unveiled its Dimensity 9600 flagship chipset series, headlined by the Dimensity 9600 Pro and the Dimensity 9600M. These processors are designed to enhance smartphone performance and support the era of ‘Agentic AI’ through specialized hardware. The Dimensity 9600 Pro is manufactured using TSMC’s 2nm process and features an ‘All-Big-Core’ CPU configuration, including Arm C2-Ultra and C2-Pro cores with clock speeds reaching up to 4.55 GHz. To manage complex AI workloads, the Pro model utilizes a dual NPU architecture, including the high-performance MediaTek NPU 1090. This setup is designed to improve LLM prefill performance and support the on-device processing of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models with up to 30 billion parameters. Imaging capabilities are bolstered by the Imagiq 1290 ISP and an upgraded Mali-G2 Ultra NX GPU. The Dimensity 9600M is designed to bring advanced AI features to a broader range of flagship devices. Built on the 3nm N3P process, it incorporates a new ‘Agentic AI Engine’ and a ‘Dimensity Scheduling Engine’ to optimize task management and generative AI capabilities. Like the Pro model, the 9600M supports high-end connectivity and hardware standards, including Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and camera sensors up to 320MP. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-17: MediaTek unveils Dimensity 9600 Pro and 9600M AI-native chips MediaTek unveiled the Dimensity 9600 Pro, a 2nm AI-native SoC, and the Dimensity 9600M, bringing advanced Agentic AI capabilities to a wider range of flagship smartphones. 9 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mediatek-unveils-dimensity-9600-flagship-chipset-series ### 2026-09-15: MediaTek launches Dimensity 9600 Pro flagship 2nm processor MediaTek has unveiled the Dimensity 9600 Pro, its first 2nm mobile processor.
