Qualcomm does not like the competition to have too much attention As for high end chips. Apple recently presented the A19 Pro on its iPhone 17, while Mediatek did the same with the size 9500, so those of San Diego decided to counterattack.
In an older and previous movement, Qualcomm has just officially revealed the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, his new SoC Mobile Range. The losses have already shown that it was a beast, but with its technical file and other presentation data it is confirmed that it is so. We tell you all your news.

20% more powerful processor, GPU up to 23% better and a gigantic jump in up to 37%
Taking advantage of the Snapdragon summit made of Hawaii, Qualcomm has revealed its new chip star. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 It is still an eight core partner produced in 3 NmLike the Snapdragon 8 elite last year. However, it introduces several improvements that show that Qualcomm has already dominated this production process to completely squeeze it.
The chip is provided with the new third generation nuclei of Oryon, capable of lifting the Rendered up to 20% in Mononnúcle and up to 17% in Multinukle As for its predecessor. Part of this is reached thanks to higher operational frequencies, because the two first nuclei work at 4.6 GHz and the six performance nuclei do it at 3.62 GHz. And what happens when the frequencies are the same as those of the Snapdragon 8 elite? That is Up to 35% less energy consumptionA barbarism.
On a graphic level and, as expected, the Snapdragon Elite Gen 5 presents Premies GPU, a chip that manages the following numbers: up to 23% more powerful, up to 20% more efficient and Up to 25% better in the ray layout As for Adreno 830. What translates this efficiency? Up to 1 hour and 48 minutes of extra autonomy in games.
Of course, Qualcomm has not revealed the official name of this new GPU, even if we all assume that it will be called Adren 840. What they commented is that it is Complete compatible with the unreal engine 5which allows the offer Graphic graphs of the desktop console. In addition, there are optimizations at the memory level, allowing a better use of resources and bandwidth.
And the neural chip? In a market dominated by artificial intelligence, Qualcomm would not have been left behind. The new NPU hexagon is up to 37% faster and up to 16% more efficient. Apart from, you receive numerous Improvements in the ability to customize the experiences promoted by agents aiin particular as regards the processing of local data.
It is the first chip compatible with the APV codec at the hardware level and also brings improvements in the 5G speed
Moving on to the image processor (ISP), the new ISP Triple spectrum now manages a 20 -bit color depth (in the photos); It is able to manage, at the same time, three 48 MP cameras; It has a dynamic range four times greater, thanks to the QDOL sensors; Receive improvements for night strokes, thanks to Night Vision 3.0; And it is the first ISP Compatible with the advanced professional video codec (APV) at hardware level.
No improvements have been announced relating to the support of the screens, therefore it must be equal to that of the Snapdragon 8 elite. However, there is news at the connectivity level. The new modem SNapdragon X85 5G is able to reach download speeds up to 12.5 Gbps (25% more). In the meantime, the Fastconnect 7900 chip has been improved to reduce WiFi latency up to 50% in video games and Save up to 40% energy using Bluetooth and UWB. And yes, all improvements are thanks to the AI, says Qualcomm.
What will be the first cell phones to use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5?
The new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is the jewel of the Crown of Qualcomm, so we will see it in the new range of different companies. There are no launch, but we know Xiaomi, Honor, Oppo, Samsung, Vivo, Asus, Realme, OnePlus, Nubia and Redmagic will use it in their mobile phones.
Yes really, The first are the Xiaomi 17Because it is already customary that the Chinese brand will give the first blow with the Qualcomm SoC.
