In the field of science and technology, innovation is not endless. In the mobile phone market, there are many star products every year, and this year's Snapdragon 7+Gen3 should be regarded as a leader in the mid-range market, and it is particularly dazzling among similar products. Why? Today we will take a detailed look at this Snapdragon 7+ Gen3.
Snapdragon 7+gen3 is a processor that is worth spending some time to understand in depth, it is a new product released by Qualcomm in March this year, using the current mainstream flagship commonly used 4nm process technology, using the same architecture as the Snapdragon 8gen3 flagship Cortex-X4 and A720, the CPU core code name is the same, it can be said that it has fully inherited the core architecture advantages of the Snapdragon 8 series, and the performance is very close to the flagship level. The basic setting of the same origin as the flagship makes the Snapdragon 7+ Gen3 have its own "highlight" effect, which makes it feel good in a crowd of competing products.
On the Geekbench 6.2 benchmark platform, the Snapdragon 7+ gen3 scored 1906 points for single-core and 4853 points for multi-core, which is basically the same as the Snapdragon 8+ gen2 and lower than the Snapdragon 8 gen3. I don't know if you have noticed that there is a particularly interesting phenomenon about Snapdragon 7 series products in the past two years, that is, when a new generation of Snapdragon 7 series is released, people will unconsciously use this product to compare with the original flagship or the previous flagship of the Snapdragon 8 series. Of course, the difference in market positioning and cost is destined to make the Snapdragon 7 series products unable to compete with the original Snapdragon 8 series flagship in any case, but we can think from another angle, when people use a mid-range product to compare with the high-end flagship, it is itself an affirmation of this mid-range product, indicating that this product has a comparable strength with the flagship in terms of performance or characteristics.
The comparison between Snapdragon 7+ Gen3 and Snapdragon 8Gen3, and even the comparison between Snapdragon 7+ Gen2 and Snapdragon 8+ Gen2 has not stopped, and the advancement of the Snapdragon 7 series has also continued. In fact, when people compare Snapdragon 7+gen3 and Snapdragon 8gen3, it is more about the comparison of characteristics and experience, although there are also comparisons in hardware parameters, running score data and peak performance, but products with different costs and different selling prices, there will definitely be differences in hardware configuration, so it is obvious that Snapdragon 7 series is not as hard as Snapdragon 8 series, but if the gap between the two is relatively small, it means that the performance of 7 series is more powerful. Compared with the comparison of hardware, the contest of actual experience will be more practical, after all, smartphones are bought and used by users, not bought to run scores or look at configurations.
Since Qualcomm has sunk flagship features, the Snapdragon 7 series product line has been endowed with more and more flagship attributes, and the gap between it and the flagship in terms of experience has become smaller and smaller. Take Snapdragon 7+gen3 as an example,This time it inherits almost all the features of the Snapdragon 8gen3 flagship,In terms of image,Snapdragon 7+gen3 has three 18bit cognitive ISP of the same flagship,If the mobile phone manufacturer is willing to pile up the camera、If the algorithm is on,Then the Snapdragon 7+gen3 series of mid-range flagships can achieve the same image function as the flagship model。 In terms of AI, the Snapdragon 7+ gen3 also supports device-side generative AI, which is popular on mainstream flagships, and can smoothly run various mainstream AI models including Baichuan-7B, Gemini Nano, Llama 2, and Zhipu ChatGLM locally. As for the gaming experience, the Snapdragon 7+ gen3 supports almost all Snapdragon Elite Gaming gaming features except for hardware-level mobile ray tracing, in addition to the flagship-level GPU configuration. It may be a pity for friends who like games, Snapdragon 7+Gen3 does not support hardware mobile ray tracing, but in view of the price of Snapdragon 7+Gen3 models of 1,000 yuan, what more bicycles!
