News & Reviews:   Snapdragon 8 Gen 4

The next-gen mobile processors by both Qualcomm and MediaTek are expected to sport next-gen prices as well if a leak by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station is to be believed. This is after the tipster said that both SoCs will be 20 per cent more expensive than their respective predecessors.

Last month, we reported the existence of the Exynos 2500 chipset which could be featured on the Samsung Galaxy S25 series. However, a new report said the opposite, saying that the next-gen Galaxy might as well use the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 AP (application processor).

In case you missed it, Qualcomm will be launching the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset from 21 to 23 October 2024. There was also news from reputable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo that the new chipsets will be used on all the Samsung Galaxy S25 series next year.

For a few years now, having up to 5000mAh battery is the standard for most smartphones, particularly budget-friendly devices and some flagships. However, that may change in the future as more phones may get a battery upgrade. 

Qualcomm is set to switch to its custom Oryon core with the official announcement of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. This transition marks the first time Qualcomm completely switches to an in-house CPU design. However, the new chipset is rumoured to be quite expensive, forcing phone manufacturers to carefully evaluate their device configurations to maintain competitive pricing.
