Nothing has launched a new budget phone under its CMF sub-brand, the CMF Phone 1. This phone is powered by the latest Dimensity 7300 chipset. On paper it looks like a successor to the Dimensity 7200 Pro, but the reality is different. So to test the performance claims, here's our deep dive into the Dimensity 7300's benchmark numbers. We have performed several tests including Geekbench, AnTuTu, 3DMark and more.

Before we delve into the numbers game, go ahead and check out the specifications of MediaTek's Dimensity 7300 chipset.

CMF Phone 1 is powered by Dimensity 7300 chipset and it has eight CPU cores. The CPU cluster is pretty straightforward: 4x Cortex-A78 cores clocked up to 2.5GHz and 4x Cortex-A55 cores clocked up to 2.0GHz.

While MediaTek has opted for older ARM cores, performance is surprisingly good for a mid-range chipset.
