Popular Android phones from Samsung, OnePlus and more set to receive ‘game-changing’ speed and battery boost very soon
ANDROID fans are in for a mega performance boost on some of the world’s best known phone brands very soon.
Devices from the likes of Samsung, OnePlus and Xiaomi are set to launch with powerful new tech onboard in the coming weeks.
The kit is known as Snapdragon 8 Elite – the company which many may recognise as the newest shirt sponsor for Manchester United.
Snapdragon is the processing chip many smartphones depend on to keep things running smoothly.
Their latest processing update is “the most powerful and world’s fastest mobile system-on-a-chip ever”, according to Qualcomm, the US tech giant that owns Snapdragon.
This makes more intensive tasks like gaming or AI tools super smooth and less laggy to run.
Users should also notice speedy web browsing and better camera capabilities as a result.
These sorts of activities can normally drain battery a lot faster.
But Qualcomm says its tech is a lot more efficient as well, meaning devices should last much longer before needing a recharge.
Snapdragon 8 Elite utilises the company’s Qualcomm Oryon processing power, which has been used to boost PCs up until now.
“We are so excited to bring the power of Qualcomm Oryon to our Snapdragon mobile platforms for the first time,” said Chris Patrick, Qualcomm’s senior vice president and general manager of mobile handsets.
“Earlier this year we debuted it in PCs, delivering remarkable experiences and unparallel battery life to PC users, energising the industry and getting the attention of consumers.
“Today, our second generation of the Qualcomm Oryon CPU debuts in our flagship Mobile Platform – it’s a major leap forward and we expect consumers to be thrilled with the new experiences enabled by our CPU technology.”
As well as Samsung, OnePlus and Xiaomi, other big names in the world of Android are poised to launch devices with Snapdragon 8 Elite in the coming weeks.
This includes ASUS, Honor, iQOO, OPPO, RealMe and Vivo.
Why chips matter
By Jamie Harris, Assistant Technology and Science Editor at The Sun
You may think that processing chips are for geeks.
But if you hate it whenever your phone gets slow or laggy, you might want to pay more attention to this tech.
The finer details can be very complex, such as the GHz (gigahertz) which measures the speed that electronic components are able to process instructions from software whenever you so much as tap an app or play a game.
Apple has its own chips for the iPhone, as does Google for the Pixel.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon is one of the bigger players that other household names like Samsung use.
Most of the powerful smartphones around at the moment use Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 – but many newly launched phones are set to use the upgraded tech announced today, known as Snapdragon 8 Elite.
More premium phones tend to use the most recent, powerful chips on the market.
