According to the technology media wccftech, Qualcomm is seeking to launch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus upgraded chip as soon as possible to replace the flagship SoC Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 released last year, the media said that Qualcomm's move is partly due to the mass production of snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
Samsung, which previously exclusively foundry the chip, allegedly encountered the yield problem of 4nm process products, poor mass production, which had a negative impact on the shipment of the chip, in addition to the above yield rumors, there are also feedback from Samsung foundry chips in many media reviews such as high heat and power consumption.
Yesterday evening, industry insiders @ mobile chip masters broke the news on the Weibo platform, saying that Qualcomm's 4nm process Snapdragon 8 Gen1 plus in TSMC, 20,000 wafers are expected to be delivered in advance to the second quarter, and the third quarter will start with more than 50,000 pieces of 4nm Gen1 plus output per quarter, and the current yield is more than 70%, which is "quite a lot" higher than Samsung's 4nm process.
