Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+ is Coming: A Mobile Performance Revolution Starts on October 22nd

On October 22nd, Qualcomm will host its Snapdragon Summit 2024 in Beijing, where the highly anticipated new flagship, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+, will make its debut. This next-generation chip will deliver significant performance improvements, bringing users a smoother and more immersive mobile experience.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+ adopts a new 2+6 core architecture design. The two super-large cores have a clock speed of up to 4.32GHz, while the six large cores reach 3.53GHz. Compared to its predecessor, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the super-large core frequency has increased by a whopping 1.02GHz, and the large core frequency has also risen by 0.23GHz. This powerful performance boost is thanks to the support of TSMC's 3nm process. Compared to the 4nm process, the 3nm process significantly improves energy efficiency, providing a strong guarantee for user experience.

Beyond improvements in CPU performance, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+ also demonstrates impressive capabilities in the GPU realm. The new GPU's internal frame interpolation technology supports simultaneous game super-resolution and frame rate enhancement, delivering a more refined and smoother gaming experience. This technology can completely replace external dedicated graphics chips, allowing users to enjoy a game experience comparable to native high frame rates without the need for an additional dedicated graphics chip.

It's worth noting which phone will debut the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+. Although rumors initially suggested the Xiaomi 15 series would be the first to feature the chip, this year's market seems to be different, with multiple models expected to launch with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+ simultaneously. These include the OnePlus 13, whose circular camera design in the top left corner closely resembles the design of Qualcomm's prototype, fueling speculation about its potential for a first launch.

Following October 22nd, new devices powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+ will gradually appear on the market, including the Xiaomi 15 series, OnePlus 13, Honor Magic7 series, iQOO 13, Realme GT7 Pro, and others. In November, cost-effective RedMi K80 series will also join this mobile performance revolution.

This competition will offer users more choices while also demanding higher standards from manufacturers. Ultimately, the market's direction will depend on who emerges as the victor in this fierce contest.

With the arrival of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3+, October 22nd will mark the beginning of a mobile performance revolution. Let's wait and see what surprises this chip has in store for us!
