Specifications and features

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+, an addendum update to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, is apparently to be constructed on TSMC’s 4nm process node. The new chipset is anticipated to feature a Cortex-X2 prime core, 3x Cortex A710 performance cores, and 4x Cortex A510 efficiency cores.

As per reports, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ would give a 10% increase in CPU performance and a small development in GPU prowess compared to the former. Further, a switch to TSMC’s 4nm fabrication is anticipated to give better thermal performance than Samsung’s 4nm process node used for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
