Qualcomm has been restless since the launch of Apple SoCs in the premium segment and MediaTek SoCs in the lower range. The chipmaker previously launched the Snapdragon 730G gaming SoC and Snapdragon 730 based on the 8nm process.
Now we have some leaks on the successor of the 730 i.e. the Snapdragon 735 which is based on the 7nm process and on a completely new architecture. According to reports, the chipset has been codenamed as SM7250.
It consists of a big Cortex-A76-based Kryo core clocked at 2.36 GHz and another one is clocked at 2.32 GHz. As we see the cores are clocked at high frequency and this is due to the advanced architecture based on 7nm process.
The rest of the CPU forms a six-core cluster of Cortex-A55 units, all of them running at 1.73 GHz. These secondary cores manage daily tasks and normal apps and the two deadly cores handle all the heavy tasks like gaming.
The GPU to be used here is the Adreno 620, which should be a minor upgrade over the last gen’s Adreno 618, spotted in the Snapdragon 730 SoC. Even though we had some whispers of this SoC earlier but no leaks were out.
So, we expect Snapdragon 735 SoC to be launching in the coming months, hopefully in December when Qualcomm generally keeps an event in Hawaii. Last year they launched the Snapdragon 855 and Snapdragon 8cx chip in this event only.
