Qualcomm’s Latest Snapdragon Chipsets

Reports are now revealing that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset will arrive packed with six performance cores and two efficiency cores. However, the Geekbench 5 single-core score of the chipset has come to 1800 points from the expected 1950 points the chipset was supposed to have.

Following this Tech Reve, a tipster on Twitter had also shared that the chipset has scored a multi-core score of 6500 points on the Geekbench multi-core test, which is about 20% more than the score acquired by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset which appeared earlier on Geekbench with a codename SM8650. As previously mentioned, the chipset also scored the same 1800 points for its single-core score.

With this, it reveals that the A17 Bionic chipset which is going to be introduced by Apple will be better than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The A17 Bionic chipset will also be made using TSMC’s 3nm process technology whereas the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset will use the 5nm process technology.

Now coming to its successor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset codenamed SM8750, from what is now known, will be 40% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The chipset will also be the first mobile AP(application processor) with two Nuvia Phoenix I cores and six Phoenix M cores. The chipset will also be manufactured using TSMC’s enhanced 3nm process, N3E, and has scored a single-core score of 2070 points and a multi-core score of 9100 points on Geekbench 5.

It is also to be noted that this is the score of an early sample of the chipset and the finished product will probably work much faster than this and will offer better performance on the device.
