Furthermore, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 will be released in early 2021. It adopts TSMC’s 6nm process, and the CPU adopts a 1+3+4 flagship triple-cluster architecture design.

It includes an Arm Cortex-A78 super core with the main frequency of up to 3.0GHz, with a nine-core GPU and Six-core MediaTek APU 3.0. At present, GPD has not announced the release time of this handheld.
