Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, produced with Samsung’s 4nm technology, disappointed users in benchmark tests. It is claimed that the company has accelerated its work for the announcement of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus model.
Qualcomm, which has fallen behind in the MediaTek competition this time, may delay the announcement of its new processor. The heating and performance problems experienced in Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processors confirm the claims about the new processor.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus processor may be introduced earlier
TSMC did not cooperate in Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 production due to Apple Bionic processor production. Having reached an agreement with Samsung on semiconductor, Qualcomm encountered some problems with its new flagship processor.
Taiwanese chip maker TSMC is claimed to be better than Samsung in energy efficiency and performance in 4nm technology. Rejecting Qualcomm’s request due to the workload, TSMC will appear on the stage again on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus processor.
Heating problem in Qualcomm processors increased with Snapdragon 888. Snapdragon 888 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processors used in flagship phones have caused smartphone manufacturers to change their cooling technologies.
Smartphones introduced last year and this year draw attention with the change in cooling technologies. It is estimated that Qualcomm wants to retire the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor as soon as possible due to heating and performance problems.
It is among the claims that the company pressured TMSC to produce Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus processor. It is not yet known when Qualcomm will introduce its new processor.
