According to information provided by the German edition of Winfuture, the prototype has already been tested under the number SM8250 and codenamed Project Kona. It's funny that the name uses the name of the island, where the flagship SoC exhibition is held annually. Thus, where the premiere of the chip will take place is not difficult to guess.
What is known about the Snapdragon 865 chip?
According to information leaks, the device will support a new generation of RAM - LPDDR5. In addition, the reports presented by the above edition indicate that the new product will be able to support the new development of the modem - SDX55 5G. It remains only to guess whether the modem will be built-in or its support is simply provided. Recall that the other day the company announced 3 more new chips:
- Snapdragon 665;
- Snapdragon 730;
- Snapdragon 730G.
New items represent the middle segment of the new generation. How soon smartphones based on these chips will appear are not reported.
