LPDDR4x for dimensity 8050 is disappointing. Even dimensity 900 has support for LPDDR5.

They have to distinguish it somehow. This chip is essentially an underperforming D1200 or D1300. It's common in processor manufacturing to use the "subpar stock" and have it operate at lower frequencies or with slower components. Intel practices this by taking higher-core chips with defective cores, disabling them, and then packaging them as a lower variant. Many have tried—and succeeded—in using these disabled cores.
