Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen 1 is what the reputation of this year, simply put, is worse than last year's Snapdragon 888 series. If it were not for the brands in the heat dissipation, the Snapdragon 8Gen 1 may have been abandoned by the brands like the Snapdragon 801. In reality, everyone pushed this pot to Samsung, thinking that it was a problem of Samsung OEM.
Now the good news is that the Snapdragon 8Gen 1+ has been transferred to TSMC, and the whistleblowers said it will be officially released in May. This is in line with the previous rumors, which means that we will see the commercial Snapdragon 8Gen 1+ platform model as soon as June. I have to say that the same process TSMC is indeed ahead of Samsung, but in the end it is too early to talk about hot and not hot. Because the problem of chip power consumption is not only the process, but also the design aspect; just like MediaTek's congenital power consumption is stronger than Qualcomm.
Therefore, let's not care about hot or not, and it is not too late to discuss it until the official release of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen 1+ in May. In addition, considering that Qualcomm will hold a 5G summit in May, this rumor is still very high.
The question we have now is what to do with all the Models of the Snapdragon 8Gen 1 platform in the first half of the year? Doesn't this mean pitting this group of users? And the brands know that the Snapdragon 8Gen 1+ has launched so many models under the premise of such performance, it is interesting that everyone does not exert efforts on this platform, and castrates a lot of practical configurations. For example: 2K screen, periscope telephoto and so on. It is said that the Snapdragon 8Gen 1+ platform is all replenished, which does not mean that Qualcomm has pit both mobile phone brands and these users? Is it any wonder that the Snapdragon 8Gen 1 platform model is not welcome now?
Therefore, we are back to the original old problem, the core technology of domestic mobile phone brands is missing. Qualcomm even if it is dead everyone has to use, otherwise there is no substitute at all, for the Snapdragon 8 can only work heat dissipation. I hope that this time MediaTek can completely support itself and give Qualcomm a painful lesson. In the future, everyone uses dim sum, and then the brand and users are relieved.
