Qualcomm is expected to release its next flagship chipset in late September, although it cannot call it Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. Even though he is Snapdragon 8 Elite Heir, the new processor can see Qualcomm returning to his previous naming scheme.
According to the information, the new chip can be launched as Snapdragon 8 Elite Jean 5 Shared(Source in Chinese) By Digital Chat Station on Weibo. The name is still not set in the stone, but returning to General Branding makes sense in Qualcomm’s current portfolio.
While “General 5” may look misleading at the first time, this is a continuity Snapdragon 8 General 3 Name. Snapdragon 8 was the successor of Elite Snapdragon 8 General 3So it was essentially the “General 4” chip, even though it was not a name.
Another aspect of Qualcomm’s naming scheme is planned to release another-flagship chipset of the company, which can be called Snapdragon 8 General 5. It is not clear that it will be the successor of Snapdragon 8S General 4 or a completely new chip. However, it will be located below the top-level chipset, but above last year’s Snapdragon 8 Elite.
There will be a chaotic understanding to call Qualcomm’s naming plan. The names of the company’s best chips moved from Snapdragon 865 to Snapdragon 888 and Snapdragon 8 Jean 1. Then three years later, we got Snapdragon 8 Elite, and this branding was also ruined.
Meanwhile, Chips Apple has very predicted names. Chips iPhone 16 A18 and A18 Pro were, and iPhone 17 The most likely will be A19 and A19 Pro Chips.
Whatever name Qualcomm has for our chips, we will hear them first at the next Snapdragon summit. Set for September 23-25, the program will serve as a premiere for the company’s latest processors, and the first devices to use them will be required in October.
I know that thinking about the chip inside the smartphone is not something that many people do, but Qualcomm can still do better. Their naming is also misleading for me, and I really are interested in this theme. I have already lost hope that we can get names that make sense without much thinking, but I beg for at least a little stability.
“Repened phone” this falls!
good news everyone! In the last one year we are working on an exciting passion project and we are thrilled to declare that it will be ready to release in a few months.
