The new generation of Snapdragon 8 is a new high-end flagship chip launched by Qualcomm at the end of 2021, which represents the highest performance level of the current Android mobile phone chip and is also a benchmark work in the field of flagship chips in 2022. On this new Snapdragon 8 chip, we see the direction of future smartphone development.
Each generation of Qualcomm Snapdragon's new generation of flagship chips is seeking breakthroughs in the process of process, of course, the new generation of Snapdragon 8 flagship chips is no exception. The new Snapdragon 8 uses the latest 4nm process, bringing higher energy efficiency ratio and better performance output. The CPU is enabled with the new Armv 9 octa-core architecture, the first to integrate ARM's Cortex-X2 super core, the main frequency up to 3.0GHz. In addition, three Cortex-A710 large cores with a main frequency of 2.5GHz and four Cortex-A510 energy efficiency cores with a main frequency of 1.8GHz should not be underestimated. These different energy efficiency cores can play their own role in the daily use of mobile phones, according to different application scenarios, and maximize energy savings.
In addition to the CPU, the GPU of the new generation Snapdragon 8 is also very capable of playing. As a graphics processing unit, the status of GPUs in recent years has also been continuously improved. Because there are more and more user groups of mobile phones playing games, the GPU is a component specially designed for processing complex data and geometric calculations in the mobile phone chip, so the performance of the built-in chip GPU of the mobile phone directly determines whether the mobile phone game runs smoothly, does not drop frames, whether the game screen is clear, the resistance ability is high and so on. So, for a great gaming experience on your phone, a GPU is key.
Qualcomm has always been very strong in terms of GPU, its Adreno GPU is originally from Qualcomm's acquisition of AMD mobile business, it can be said that in the GPU field, Qualcomm's Adreno is an unsurpassable existence. Unlike chip manufacturers that generally use public architecture, Qualcomm has a strong self-developed GPU architecture capability. We know that the GPUs of the Snapdragon 8 flagship chips of the past generations have been hailed as "the strongest on the surface" and can easily run almost all large mobile games on the market. But on the new generation of Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, we still see Qualcomm's powerful strength in gpu, and even the technological innovation and breakthrough of the new generation of Snapdragon 8 on the GPU is likely to set off a new "change" for the game market in the future.
First of all, in the naming method of the GPU, the new generation of Snapdragon 8 did not follow the previous rules, but directly named
The "next generation of Adreno GPUs" gives people a new feeling of carrying on the past and opening up the future. In terms of performance performance, the new generation of Snapdragon 8 compared to its predecessor Product Snapdragon 888, directly increased the graphics rendering speed by 30%, while the performance power consumption decreased by 25%, Vulkan rendering performance increased by up to 60%, and the game ran more smoothly.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that the new Snapdragon 8 has also joined the GPU control panel for the first time. This is like a mobile phone's custom settings, allowing gamers to set the GPU individually. For example, through the GPU setting interface to set the frame rate, resolution and other information, you can more targeted adjustment of gpu performance output, to meet the personalized use needs of different players, especially for professional players, the new Snapdragon 8 is quite practical for hardcore players.
In addition, Qualcomm also added a new motion engine and stereoscopic URAN technology to the Adreno GPU of the new Snapdragon 8. The addition of these new features allows mobile phones to achieve twice the number of frames at nearly the same power consumption, bringing a better experience of high-frame games and power consumption, and making the game's motion scene picture quality more smooth. At the same time, the graininess of the screen can also be rendered and restored more realistically, which greatly improves the immersive experience of the game.
The new Snapdragon 8 can be said to be the strongest game performance artifact created by Qualcomm so far, and it is foreseeable that in the near future, many high-performance gaming phones and e-sports mobile phones will be the first choice to carry this new Snapdragon 8 processor, bringing a subversive new experience for mobile game players.
