This years flagship Snapdragon 845 SoC is the most popular and preferred mobile chipset among all currently. While other chipsets manufacturing companies like Huawei HiSilicon, Samsung, Apple are already launched their flagship 7nm based mobile processors, Qualcomm still working on it. However, the company likely to be announced Snapdragon 8150 SoC by the end of this year on December 4 most probably.
Snapdragon 8150 chip expected to introduce soon
According to the leaked reports, Qualcomm is set to launch Snapdragon 8150 chipset based on the 7nm process and will come with three-cluster CPU core design this year. It’s expected that the chipset will be 5G compatible with focused on AI machine-learning capabilities. The event will be held in Hawaii, a US State, on December 4 called “Qualcomm Technology Summit” and some of the Chinese press media members have already received the invitation. The invitation comes with a nice line, i.e. “Dare to be the first 5G mobile experience.”
The three-day technology summit event will also introduce some of the Qualcomm’s next future plans, upcoming 5G connectivity-enabled chipsets etc. Meanwhile, a Xiaomi VR device will also launch at this event with the Snapdragon 821 SoC reportedly. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8150 SoC is expected to feature three-cluster CPU core design which will be quite similar to Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 980 HIAI SoC.
