The chip have been announced Snapdragon 6 Gen 4which is using CPU nuclei ARMV9, And it is also the first that has a process node of 4 nm of TSMC.
Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 is presented, the first with ARMV9 nuclei
Qualcomm has been working on the design of the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 With a great and important update of this series with improvements of performance, efficiency, improvements in the area of artificial intelligence, in graphic performance, etc.
Main characteristics
The chips Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 It is the first in its category to use the nuclei ARMV9 Cortex-A720which is working here with a 2.3 GHz watch speed as the main nucleus, some Three additional large nuclei A720 that work 2.2 GHz and others Four Cortex-A520 nuclei smaller that reaches a speed of 1.8 GHz.
The jump of the ARMV8 nuclei to the ARMV9 (Cortex-A78/A55) should mark a new impulse in performance. A fact that is also important is that these socates are also the first to take advantage of int4, which is important for the acceleration of AI.
In terms of performance, the improvement in performance with a single nucleus with respect to GEN 3 is 11%, according to Geekbench 5.2 tests.
Meanwhile, graphic performance is in charge of the Adreno GPUwhich would offer 29% more yield. In addition, there is talk of improved efficiency of 12%.

The chip support to 16 GB of RAM LPDDR5 (up to 3200 MHz) and LPDDR4X (2133 MHz). For storage, the chip is compatible with UFS 3.1, while also supports USB-C 3.1. In video terms this chip can control 4K screens at 60 Hz, 10 -bit colors and HDR10+. It would also be compatible with a 144 Hz soda rate and a screen resolution E 1080p.
Qualcomm He shares that the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 has 12 -bit triple ISP with support for sensors up to 200 MP. While the MODEM 5G Admits Sub-6ghz (4 × 4 mime) and MMWave (2 × 2 mime) and descending link speeds of up to 2.9 Gbps. Wifi 6e and Bluetooth 5.4 are also being supported.
Device manufacturers point to a surprisingly low price range of $ 100 and 150.
