Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ SoC Tipped to Launch in May
Qualcomm, a semiconductor company, unveiled the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 CPU in December 2021. According to market sources, the firm is developing an improved ‘Plus’ version of the flagship processor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
According to reports, Qualcomm’s speculated processor, dubbed SM8475, may make its actual appearance as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus SoC. Yogesh Brar, a respected tipster, recently revealed the launch date of Qualcomm’s forthcoming flagship processor.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 was produced on Samsung’s 4nm technology, but the future Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ will be constructed on TSMC’s 4nm semiconductors production process. As a result, according to reports, the Plus version will become more effective than the standard version.
According to the leaked roadmap, Qualcomm will be announcing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ in early May. Around the same period, the US-based chipmaker is likely to debut the new Snapdragon 700-series. Motorola, Lenovo, OnePlus, and Xiaomi are among the companies likely to release the first smartphones supported by the SD8G1+.
Furthermore, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 are anticipated to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ SoC when they arrive later this year.
