The current semiconductor crisis is not the one that this time swept away the availability of new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chipof which we had already had some news, so that its arrival is postponed to the second half of this year 2022.

Phones with the new chip for the second half

It should be noted that this new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chip was supposed to come out in one of the new phones from some brands in June. But these plans seem to be delayed and this SoC will have to wait until the second half of 2022 for its arrival.

Via Phone Arena, and as a source for Digital Chat Station, we know it’s not the current semiconductor crisis, but the issues with COVID-19 in China that have led to factories in the Chinese city. from Zhengzhou, currently subject to strict restrictions with the “Zero COVID” guidelines, they had to stop production.

This caused delays in the mass production of this chip from Qualcomm; and it’s that this Chinese city is called Iphone City because Foxconn has a big factory there.

Now, if on one side we have this negative news, there is positive news, and that is that the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra could be the first to carry in its bowels the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chip.

Of course, we must also count on the fact that the name of this chip is another and let’s leave aside the “Gen 1+” to name it in another way; although this is rather due to the proximity in time of the launch of the first and this one.

We just have to know the potential it hides and if there will be a big difference between the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and the Gen 1+. We’ll see.
