New chipsets to be offered to the lower levels after Qualcomm changed to a new naming were also eagerly awaited. After the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chipset, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset became official.

What will Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 offer?

The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset is manufactured on the 4nm process and will offer 8 cores in total. The firm did not clearly disclose its core structures. The Kryo cores offer a 40 percent increase while boosting to 2.2GHz. The Adreno graphics unit, on the other hand, offers around 35 percent better performance. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 series enables cognitive HDR video capture and 200MP resolutions for the first time, thanks to the 12-bit Spectra Triple ISP. Again, the seventh generation artificial intelligence engine offers up to 3 times better performance and efficiency.

The Snapdragon X62 5G modem on the chipset can reach higher connection speeds. With the FastConnect 6700 module, Wi-Fi 6E connections are possible. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset will be available early next year.
