New report says Qualcomm Snapdragon 875G will be made by Samsung
Qualcomm recently announced a revamped version of the Snapdragon 865 that will be the driving force behind various upcoming Android smartphones. Towards the end of the year, we expect the chipmaker to unveil the chip’s real successor, which will offer more than just overclocked cores. Per a new report (via MyFixGuide), the chipset will be called Snapdragon 875G, and it will be released in the first quarter of 2021.
The Snapdragon 875G will boast better performance and power efficiency than the 7nm Snapdragon 865
It is estimated that the resulting chips will be nearly 25 percent smaller when compared to those made using the 7nm EUV die. The fabrication process will also increase transistor density and improve efficiency by around 20 percent
The same lithography technology will also apparently be used to manufacture the mid-range Snapdragon 735G silicon and it will also likely land in the first quarter of the next year. Qualcomm is also expected to announce an entry-level Snapdragon 435G SoC around the same time.
All the Qualcomm and MediaTek chips expected in the near future
Before the year concludes, it will probably launch the Dimensity 400 too, which will be a 6nm chipset. In Q2 next year, it is tipped to release a flagship chip based on the 5nm process with an onboard 5G modem.
