Benchmark Comparison
We used these two smartphones to run the benchmark scores for this chipset:
- IQOO Z9 (8GB + 128GB) for Dimensity 7200
- Noting Phone 2a Plus (8GB + 256GB) for Dimensity 7350
Remember, benchmark scores can vary across devices even with the same chipset, and benchmark scores also depend on various criteria. However, we have tried to use the highest-scoring smartphones possible.
AnTuTu Score
Analyzing the AnTuTu scores below, it can be seen that the MTK Dimensity 7350 scored 5.9% higher than the MTK Dimensity 7200.
| AnTuTu | MTK D 7350 | MTK D 7200 |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | 227609 | 240090 |
| GPU | 209167 | 176074 |

Conclusion
We have taken the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus smartphone, which was recently released, for the Dimensity 7350 chip benchmark run. You might think that the (2a) Plus has the D 7350 Pro chip, which is correct, but there isn’t much difference for the ‘Pro’ tag line, so I used the same benchmarks.
The Dimensity 7350 chipset is similar to the Dimensity 7200, but with some improvements :
- The D 7350 is clocked 200 MHz higher than the D 7200.
- The company claims that it provides 30% faster GPU performance than the 7200.
- Thanks to the MediaTek NPU 657, this new chipset will be able to handle AI-related tasks better than the D 7200.
The AnTuTu score shows a 6% difference between the two chips, but in the Geekbench test, the difference between these two chipsets is quite minor. Interestingly, the multi-core score of the Dimensity 7200 is slightly higher than that of the Dimensity 7350.
However, both of these chipsets are good choices in the mid-range segment. If the price difference between the two chipset smartphones is not too much for your needs, then you can go with the Dimensity 7350 chip. What do you think of this comparison?
