Qualcomm’s latest mobile chip and platform, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, were unveiled earlier this week, promising to “revolutionize flagship smartphones” with “groundbreaking” experiences.Although benchmarks indicate that it will not be able to compete with Apple’s A16 Bionic chip, which powers iPhone 14 Pro models, the new chip is expected to appear in flagship Android smartphones later this year.
Geekbench scores for the most recent chip have already been observed in an unreleased Android handset, despite the fact that smartphones will not officially feature the chip until a few months later.The latest Snapdragon 8 chip received scores of 1483 for single-core and 4709 for multi-core, as reported by DealNTech.The A16 Bionic got a single-core score of 1874 and a multi-core score of 5372.In comparison, the iPhone 13 Pro and lower-end iPhone 14 models’ A15 Bionic chips scored 1709 in single-core versus 1483 for Qualcomm’s most recent chip.
In a public statement for the new chip, Qualcomm said it will “characterize another norm for associated processing, wisely designed with weighty artificial intelligence in all cases to empower phenomenal encounters.””Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will revolutionize the landscape of flagship smartphones in 2023,” stated Chris Patrick, senior vice president and general manager of mobile handsets at Qualcomm.
Qualcomm claims that the more recent platform improves power efficiency, CPU performance, and GPU performance by 35% and 25%, respectively, when compared to the Snapdragon 8 chip’s predecessor.In 2020, Apple’s A14 Bionic chip, as well as the A13 Bionic chip from the previous year, will outperform Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 chip, which was first introduced to Android devices last year.
Performance claims made by Apple at the September keynote for the iPhone 14 Pro The A16 Bionic chip in the iPhone 14 Pro is built on TSMC’s 4nm process, and both offer improved performance and energy efficiency.The A16 Bionic chip has a 16-core neural engine, a 6-core CPU, a 5-core GPU, and 16 billion transistors.During the Apple event in September, senior vice president of worldwide marketing Greg Joswiak stated, “The competition is still working to catch up to the performance of the A13, which we first introduced with iPhone 11 three years ago.”
