The future face of Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 that is going to conquer the smartphone world, is expected to be launched in 2024. At present Qualcomm launches Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with AI Generative NPUs, frame generation technology, and power consumption features. Seems to be collaborating with Samsung Galaxy S24, OnePlus 12 Pro, Xiaomi 14 Pro, Realme GT 5 Pro, and so on.
Various interesting notifications are coming upon the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. There is no official information from the Qualcomm official site so, the information provided is mere rumors which may or may not be accurate. But for sure it is going to blast as the most iconic one.
About GPU and NPU
The size is predicted to be 3 nm smaller than its predecessor. Probably, the Oryon core would come in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 already; it is predicted to appear in the Snapdragon X Elite. It could challenge Apple’s A17 chipset features due to elegance. NPU would be a much faster and supreme AI generator than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
Previously Snapdragon Processor have been made of Octa-core but now will possess a single core with 70% lesser power consumption so, you could get long-lasting battery life. Single core in Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 equals to 12 core core monster from PC division. This single-core PC redefining can compete with the Mac 2 CPU by 30% faster peak performance in power consumption.
Dual Source
Some say 8 Gen 4 would have a dual source between TMCS and Samsung. Predicted to be produced by TMCS ( Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing) because of its proficiency in N3E fab space. Qualcomm should pay for TMCS to get N3E privileges, mostly Intel and MediaTek are in an alternative plan to produce N3E features in their products so it will destroy Snapdragon’s bandwidth.
In case there’s no collaboration Samsung would probably go with its native maker, Exynos 2500 (dream chipset). But the above information is only a myth and we need to look forward to the official news.
