Qualcomm formalizes the chip that will compete with Apple’s A18 Pro chip, it is the new Snapdragon 8 Elite
We were just comparing on iPad, explain what Apple’s A18 Pro chip could do against competing chips on Android and soon after Qualcomm announced its immediate solution. This is the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip with custom Oryon processor which replaces Kryo Arm based chips. Qualcomm boasted at its event that the processor in this chip is the fastest in the world. Will it beat Apple’s latest chip?

As our colleagues at Andro4all tell us, the San Diego firm, during its Snapdragon Summit 2024 event, indicates that The Snapdragon 8 Elite will give “a definitive boost to multimodal AI”. They want to be leaders in the most competitive market where the differences are notable.
To start, They abandon the Gen name to make way for a new Elite generation. Integrates a Oryon processor built using the 3-nanometer process. He has 8 cores, 2 main and 6 performance. They reach up to a 4.32 GHz speed. They are The GPU is the Adreno 830 which offers real-time hardware acceleration. It is capable of running games with HDR up to 10-bit depth, playback in HDR10, HDR10+ HLD and Dolby Vision. Supports LP-DDR5x RAM up to 24GB.
