Qualcomm’s most powerful chip is the Snapdragon 865, which is expected to be overshadowed in a few months by its successor, the Snapdragon 875.
The boys of 91Mobiles have had access to Hardware Features of the Next Snapdragon 875 Chip thanks to a source that, supposedly, has had access to the specifications of this next chipset.
This leak claims that The Snapdragon 875 will be Qualcomm’s first 5nm mobile processor. This should give the new chip advantages in terms of performance, space and power consumption compared to the Snapdragon 865.
Below, we can see a summary of the main characteristics of the new chip:
- Kryo 685 CPU based on ARM V8 technology
- Adreno 660 GPU
- Adreno 665 VPU
- DPU Adreno 1095
- Secure Processing Unit SPU250
- ISP Spectra 580
- Snapdragon Sensors Core Technology
- External 802.11ax, 2 × 2 MIMO, and Bluetooth Milan
- Compute Hexagon DSP with Hexagon Vector eXtensions and Hexagon Tensor Accelerator
- LPDDR5 Quad-channel SDRAM memory
- Low energy sound subsystem with Aqstic Audio Technologies WCD9380 and audio codec WCD9385
The chipset will be the first of the company to have the new X60 5G modem. It is unclear whether the 5G modem will be integrated or optional, but with the popularity 5G is gaining, it will come as no surprise that Qualcomm chooses to integrate it. This modem will be compatible with both mmWave and the sub-6GHz band.
Unfortunately, the leak does not reveal quantitative data on the improvement to be expected in terms of performance compared to the Snapdragon 865.
Lastly, although this chip was expected to be announced in December 2020, the current pandemic situation could delay the launch next year.
