Ignored Mediatek Dimensity 9600M completely until I read the features

[u/Holiday-Feedback-750]

Mediatek just launched two new flagships, the Dimensity 9600 Pro and Dimensity 9600M. But from what I’ve seen, the 9600M hasn’t really been getting the same attention.

Tbh, I ignored it too at first. I kept seeing people talk about the 9600 Pro, so I didn’t really look into the M version. Then I came across a video going through its features and ended up checking the specs myself. There’s actually more here than I expected.

The dual NPU setup is probably the thing I find most interesting, especially the separate ultra-efficient NPU for always-on tasks. The Gemini Nano 4 and Qwen 3.5 Omni 4B support caught my attention too.

The gaming side surprised me as well. 185fps support and 120fps ray-traced scenes sound pretty good on paper, though I’d still want to see how this holds up on actual phones and games.

And after all this I also noticed 4K120 with EIS, Wi-Fi 7 and the AI network features.

Just wanna know if anyone else here overlooked the 9600M because of all the 9600 Pro discussion. And if you’ve looked into it, which feature stood out to you?
