He, however, added that the mobile phone makers themselves would announce the same. Expanding its "Helio P" family of power-efficient chips for mid-range devices, MediaTek launched Helio P22 processor in India last month.

With P22 chipset, the chip maker would offer the benefits of Artificial Intelligence (AI) accelerated experiences, brilliant photography and reliable, high-speed connectivity to more affordable devices, thus, expanding the "new premium" market.
