It is exposed that Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 will be devolved to the mid-end machine next year, and there will be three models in the price range.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen AVIDINTEL for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, September 18 (Xinhua)-- Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1, the processor of choice for most Android high-end flagships this year, may be devolved to the mid-range next year. Is this a victory for the party?

According to the blogger @ Digital chat site, there are currently three 2K ±price range midrange phones with Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 processors planned for next year, with significant upgrades to the fast recharge and endurance screens.

However, next year, Android high-end flagship phones are expected to use Qualcomm's next-generation Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. @ Digital chat site said that Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 may have an ultra-high-frequency version of "ex-factory ashes". The scale of the GPU has been improved on the basis of this year, and the ultimate performance can be compared with Apple's A-Series.

IT House learned that the core architecture of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 has not changed compared with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which is a three-cluster architecture of super-large core Cortex-X2 + large-core A710 + small-core A510, but the highest dominant frequency of its CPU core has been raised to 3.2GHz, resulting in a 10% improvement in CPU performance and a 10% improvement in GPU performance.

Another important point of view of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 compared with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 is that the chip process has been changed to TSMC's 4nm process, and the energy efficiency of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 has been greatly improved with the help of more mature process. In the Aztec Ruins run test, the GPU power consumption of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 is up to 30% lower than that of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, and the energy efficiency of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 is better in the same performance. At the same time, the CPU power consumption of Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 is about 30% lower than that of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 under the same performance.
