Qualcomm introduced its new flagship chipset called Snapdragon 888 earlier this week. We were hoping an upper-mid-range rig would take the stage as well, but the San Diego company had nothing more to share about a new 700 series top dog.
According to a leak on Weibo, the new chipset will be unveiled in Q1 2021 and will start shipping almost immediately.
Qualcomm’s new 7-series chipset is expected to be the main competitor to the 5nm Exynos 1080 with integrated 5G modem and Mediatek’s MT6893 platform, a 6nm upper mid-range that has yet to be announced.
So far we know virtually nothing about the new Snapdragon 7xx, aside from its model number SM7350 and the codename Cedros, which is named after an island off the coast of Mexico (and relatively close to San Diego, the headquarters of Qualcomm).
A prototype of this platform scored over 530,000 on AnTuTu, which means it would perform much better than the SD765G, but will still be one step behind last year’s flagship SD865 which easily reached over 600,000 on the same evaluation platform. comparative.
