Qualcomm announces Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 chipset: more speed, less consumption

OUR Qualcomm today introduced its latest high performance chipset, Snapdragon 8+Generation 1which is an updated version of the model 8 Gen. one standard. Thanks to the new manufacturing process used by the manufacturer, the new chip will provide a significant performance boost with greater power efficiency.

Superior performance with less consumption

When SD8 Gen1 was released, the model brought some success to its predecessor, but still had less power than expected. Presumably this problem is related to the 4nm processor node. Samsung used in the model, so in the Plus version, the company replaced this node with 4 nm TSMS.

Because of this Snapdragon 8+Generation 1 will have a significant increase in performance as well as power consumption. Inside, the model will have the same design as its predecessor, but Qualcomm managed to increase the clock speed of the processor and graphics processor by 10%, while the chip has up to 20% performance increase per wattresulting in energy savings of 15% in some cases.

The higher the efficiency TSMS will also affect the battery consumption of the model as the manufacturer states that CPU and GPU have 30% higher efficiency. This will increase the battery life of smartphones equipped with SoC, according to the company, the new model will be able to withstand up to an hour longer than its predecessor when gaming, 50 minutes longer when browsing social media, and over 5.5 hours of talk time.

Motorola should be the first to use the new SoC

OUR Qualcomm did not show in detail the technical characteristics of the new Snapdragon 8+Generation 1but said that the first smartphones with the new processor will appear in the third quarter of 2022. Motorola I want to repeat my feat with SD8 Gen1 and be the first manufacturer to release a device with plus.

Along with this, the company also stated that manufacturers ASUS ROG, Black Shark, HONOR, iQOO, Lenovo, Nubia, OnePlus, OPPO, OSOM, realme, RedMagic, Redmi, vivo, Xiaomi and ZTE also work with the new chip. OUR Samsung is not mentioned in the list despite the fact that he plans to use the new chipset, because it does not allow him to be associated with this type of advertising.
