AI agents help teams complete multi-step tasks on their computers. They can summarise meetings, draft replies, organise files, and prepare reports, saving time on routine work. But in AI-first PCs, the results depend on the processor inside the device.
MediaTek offers AI computing platforms built for this across laptops, Chromebooks, and tablets. This blog explains how AI agents improve productivity and which MediaTek solutions support them.
Faster Answers Save Time Every Hour
On-device agents respond faster because they don’t need to send data to a remote server and wait for a response. MediaTek NPUs are purpose-built to handle AI workloads directly on the device, enabling faster processing while keeping data private and secure.
The MediaTek Dimensity CX C10 Max shows this clearly. Announced on September 21, 2026, it carries an 8th-generation NPU rated up to 55 TOPS, or 55 trillion operations per second, to accelerate on-device AI processing and deliver responsive results.
The NPU is designed to power Gemini Intelligence features on an upcoming premium and portable Googlebook. As a result, the platform delivers strong AI PC performance and sets the pace for AI-first PCs.
Steady Speed Keeps Agents Useful All Day
Speed must last, because an agent works non-stop for hours. It adds value only if the laptop stays fast on battery. To test this, a Signal65 white paper hosted on MediaTek’s site compared the MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910 with other recent Chromebooks built on x86 chips.
On battery, those x86 chips slowed by up to 42%. The Kompanio Ultra 910 slowed by only 6%, and it used up to 85% less power under load. In practice, an agent responds as quickly at 4 p.m. as it does at 9 a.m. The chip’s 3nm process from TSMC is a big part of why it stays so efficient.
In the Dimensity C10 Max, that efficiency makes thin, light, fanless laptops possible, with battery life that lasts all day. All eight of its CPU cores are built for speed, so you can keep email, browsers, and documents open while an agent runs along with them, and everything stays responsive.
More Memory Lets Agents Take On Bigger Jobs
Memory is the next factor, and it decides how big a job an agent can take on. Introduced on June 1, 2026, NVIDIA RTX Spark powers Windows 11 PCs built for personal agents. It combines MediaTek’s expertise in CPUs, wireless, and power with NVIDIA’s AI platform, creating AI PC processors suited to slim laptops and small desktops.
MediaTek designed a memory controller that supports up to 128GB of unified memory. In simple terms, the CPU and graphics share one large pool. This gives local agents more room to handle larger tasks.
Clearer Calls Support Agent-Led Work
Agents often work around meetings and video, so connectivity and cameras matter too.
The C10 Max supports Wi-Fi 7 with speeds up to 7.3Gbps, which keeps calls steady in busy places. Furthermore, its Imagiq 1090 camera engine supports sensors up to 32MP with HDR video, smooth zoom and steady focus, so calls and livestreams look clearer.
Agents Across Laptops, Chromebooks and Tablets
The same approach extends beyond laptops. MediaTek tablet processors combine CPUs, GPUs, and AI processors with built-in Wi-Fi and even 5G. For example, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra run on MediaTek Dimensity 9400+.
Chromebook Plus laptops follow a similar path. The Acer Chromebook Spin Plus 514 and Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 use Kompanio Ultra, whose NPU is rated up to 50 TOPS. Together, these AI laptop processors bring on-device AI to screens of every size.
Where Agent Productivity Gains Add Up
AI agents only help if the device keeps up, and MediaTek is built for exactly that. Its NPUs, rated up to 55 TOPS, answer in moments.
The Kompanio Ultra 910 holds its speed on battery, slowing by only 6%, so help at the end of the day is as sharp as help at the start. Up to 128GB of unified memory gives local agents room for bigger jobs, while Wi-Fi 7 and the Imagiq camera engine keep calls clear and connected.
From Googlebook and Windows to Chromebook Plus and Android tablets, MediaTek brings one on-device AI approach to every screen. For teams that want agents that stay fast, private, and ready all day, MediaTek laptops and tablets lead the way.
FAQs
1.Does an agent really stay fast on battery?
Yes. In the Signal65 white paper, the Kompanio Ultra 910 slowed by only 6% on battery, against up to 42% for x86 Chromebooks. It also used up to 85% less power under load.
2.What does the C10 Max’s NPU do for an agent?
Its 8th-generation NPU is rated up to 55 TOPS and runs AI on the device, so replies skip relying on the cloud. Data stays private, and the CPU and graphics stay free for your other work.
3.Why does 128GB of unified memory matter for local agents?
The CPU and graphics share one large pool, so agents like NVIDIA NemoClaw get more room for bigger tasks. This comes from the memory controller MediaTek designed for NVIDIA RTX Spark.
