Qualcomm is organizing its next projection event in late September, and at that time Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 is expected to unveil. That chip has a model number SM8850, but rumors in China have been bubbling for some time related to SM8845 starting this year.
This will not be the Snapdragon 8S General 5, because it is higher than that, but still a step below the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. It is not clear what Qualcomm tells him, but some believe it will be Snapdragon 8 Plus.
With the original Snapdragon 8 elite from last year, the performance wise, accordingly, has been billed accordingly, as it also uses the All-Big Core CPU configuration with Qualcomm’s custom-developed cores. Compared to 8 elite people, it will fabricate on a new process, and use some of the 8 elite 2 peripherals.
Therefore, overall the original 8 elite should be very little improvement. The famous Chinese Liquor Digital Chat Station says SM8845 will be used by Oppo and OnePlus as well as Vivo, and the phone operated by it will be a very large battery up to 8,000 mAh.
It will definitely be a chipset of choice for devices of the SM8845 ‘flagship killer’ type, and will finish the gap between the 8S series and the 8 elite lineup nicely. Although it is very close to the original 8 elite dimensions, it will be interesting to see if it will be closed to the SOC.
