Nothing Phone (2a) Plus has been launched and it features MediaTek’s Dimensity 7350 Pro chipset. Regardless of the strange naming scheme, it seems like an upgrade to theDimensity 7200 ProSoC. So to evaluate the chipset, we have benchmarked Dimensity 7350 Pro on several tests including Geekbench, AnTuTu, CPU Throttling test, 3DMark, and more. On that note, let’s begin.
Dimensity 7350 Pro Specifications
In this first Geekbench test which stress tests the CPU, MediaTek’s Dimensity 7350 Pro scores 1,195 in the single-core test and 2,622 in the multi-core test. Thanks to the Cortex-A715 core that is clocked up to 3.0GHz, it manages to get a marginally better score than the Dimensity 7200 Pro chipset in single-threaded tasks.
In multi-threaded tasks though, it gets a decent score as there are only two Cortex-A715 cores and six Cortex-A510 cores. The CPU performance is roughly the same, compared to Dimensity 7200 Pro.Dimensity 7350 ProGeekbench Single-core1,195Geekbench Multi-core2,622
To stress test the CPU on the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus, we did a 60-minute CPU Throttling test, and it performed exceptionally well. Dimensity 7350 Pro’s CPU throttled to 91% of its maximum performance, showing no visible drop in performance even for an extended period. Nothing has most likely baked in a large VC cooling system which is allowing the CPU to sustain its performance for a longer period.
To benchmark the Arm Mali-G610 MC4 GPU on the Dimensity 7350 Pro SoC, we ran the 3DMark Wild Life Stress test. Again, it delivered great performance, achieving the best loop score of 4,786 and the lowest loop score of 4,642. The GPU remained pretty stable throughout the test, showcasing 97% stability.Dimensity 7350 ProBest loop score4,786Lowest loop score4,642Stability97%
Although the Dimensity 7350 Pro chipset packs MediaTek’s older NPU 657, it gets a decent score of 88,475 in the AITuTu benchmark. The newer NPU gets around 100K in the same AI test.
So that wraps up our benchmark testing of Dimensity 7350 Pro. It’s almost an identical chipset, compared to Dimensity 7200 Pro. The CPU cores along with the CPU cluster are the same. There is only a 200MHz increase for the Cortex-A715 core, which can now go up to 3.0GHz. The GPU also remains the same.
