It was rumored that Qualcomm would launch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chipset this month, but a Chinese leaker has revealed it’s more likely we’ll see the platform arrive in the second half of the year. According to Digital Chat Station, which usually agrees with such rumors, the reason is the current epidemic situation in China.
Political leaders of the Asian country were quoted by the state agency Xinhua that the easing of the measures “will undoubtedly lead to a huge number of infections”, which will have a serious impact on the economy and the social development of life and health. of people.
According to Digital Chat Station, Lenovo and Qualcomm have a “good relationship”, suggesting that the first phone with the new chip could be the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. After all, the Edge 30 Pro (launched in China as the Edge X30) was the first with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
The name “Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+” is still just a suggestion, but expectations are that the GPU will receive a boost while the CPU will remain the same as the current flagship: a powerful Cortex-X2 at (almost) 3 GHz, three in Continue Cortex-A710 high-performance drive and four Cortex-A510 cores for efficiency.
