Qualcomm, one of the leading names in the mobile chip market, continues its preparations on Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which will be the successor of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Today, some surprising details have been shared about the new chipset. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 may have two different versions.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 may come in two different versions

Newly shared reports say that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will have two different core configurations, 1+5+2 and 2+4+2. This shows us that a more powerful 8 Gen 3 version is on the way. At this point, it should be noted that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 version with two Cortex-X4 cores will offer a significant improvement in performance. However, the upgrade can also cause a higher heat generation. It is not yet known how Qualcomm will solve this problem. As you know, Google included two Cortex-X1 units in the Pixel 7 series instead of one on the Tensor G2 platform. In this context, it is certainly not surprising that Qualcomm offers broader support to manufacturers. As a matter of fact, such a step was taken with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy and the Galaxy S23 series.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will stick with TSMC's 4nm process node, similar to its predecessor Gen 2. Therefore, Qualcomm will only focus on the design change compared to its rival, the Apple A17. But we do know that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has received rave reviews for both performance and efficiency. So the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 can continue this success.
