Qualcomm today (1st) officially launched the new processor “Snapdragon 8 Gen 1” for the new generation of Android flagship phones in 2022. It has changed its naming styles such as 868 and 888, which have been maintained for nearly ten years, and changed to “8 mobile platform”. The new brand name, and Gen 1 is the first processor under the new name.

In terms of hardware specifications, this chip uses ARM’s “Armv9” architecture and maintains eight cores. It has a new Cortex-X2 main core with a clock of 3.0GHz, and three 2.5GHz Cortex-A710 cores, and 4 Cortex-A510 energy-saving cores, the clock is 1.8GHz.

“Snapdragon 8 Gen 1” also integrates Qualcomm’s fourth-generation 5G modem, with the fastest loading speed of 10Gbps, and an upload rate of 3.5Gbps. It also supports Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, as well as Qualcomm’s own Bluetooth LE audio technology can support wireless Bluetooth audio transmission.

In addition, “Snapdragon 8 Gen 1” is also the same as the flagship processor “Dimensity 9000” announced by MediaTek. It uses a 4nm process, which means that the Android camp will lead Apple. The first overtaking in the process is still 5nm. A series of chips. However, Qualcomm continued its existing plans and still handed it over to Samsung’s foundry, while MediaTek continued to cooperate with TSMC.

For the camera, this chip also supports shooting HDR10+ videos with 8K resolution, or 18 Bit RAW files.

In terms of specific performance, “Snapdragon 8 Gen 1” has a 20% CPU improvement, 30% energy saving upgrade, and 30% faster GPU graphics performance than the previous generation Snapdragon 888. AI machine learning performance is also the highlight of this chip, which has increased the speed by 7 times. This is also the first time that Qualcomm has cooperated with Google to create a neural network structure search (NAS). It is expected to be applied to mobile, XR, and automotive platforms. AI effectiveness.

According to the previously released data from AnTuTu, “Snapdragon 8 Gen 1” also has a score of over one million points, and is slightly ahead of the “Tenji 9000” by about 30,000 points. The difference between the two is not too big.
