Today, information from a well-known leaker has surfaced, indicating that the successor chipset to Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will employ a new CPU architecture, while significantly boosting clock speed.
Specifically, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is rumored to include a Cortex-X4 CPU core running at speeds up to 3.7 GHz, accompanied by 5 high-performance cores and 2 power-efficient cores.
According to Digital Chat Station, Qualcomm's upcoming high-end processor is codenamed SM8650, with the GPU being referred to as Adreno 750. TSMC is expected to continue producing the chip, transitioning from the N4 node to N4P. It will still utilize a 4nm process but with slight improvements, enhancing both performance and energy efficiency.
It's understood that TSMC's decision not to adopt the 3nm process stems from production cycles - N4P performs well and is reasonably priced. Additionally, Taiwan-based factories are poised to begin mass production once trials by companies are completed.
