Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com reported on August 16 that Qualcomm had previously charged Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 $160, while foreign media techballad reported that the purchase cost of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip would be more than $160 (CTOnews.com Note: current about 1168 yuan), which will lead to an increase in the price of related hardware equipment.

▲ Tuyuan Qualcomm foreign media said that in the face of this "high" purchase price, some manufacturers may have "no choice" but to save costs and continue to use Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

Foreign media claimed that the cost of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 was high due to switching to TSMC's 4nm N4P process, and Qualcomm transferred the cost to other manufacturers. Even if Qualcomm charges $200 (currently about 1460 yuan) for each Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, leading companies in the mobile phone industry, such as Samsung and Xiaomi, will insist on providing customers with flagship Android smartphones. And these surging costs eventually fall on consumers.

CTOnews.com reported earlier that Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3's new generation of flagship mobile phone processor recently ushered in its first running score, based on Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus and equipped with 8GB memory. The running score of Geekbench 6 shows that it has a single core score of 2233 and a multi-core score of 6661. It adopts TSMC N4P process and is equipped with 1*3.3GHz X4 super large core + 3*3.15GHz A720 large core + 2*2.96GHz A720 large core + 2*2.27GHz A530 small core, and Adreno 750GPU.
