Qualcomm’s next Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset could come early

Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC back in October. The company is allegedly already working on its successor, and the development is quite advanced.

So much so, in fact, that the next top of the line Qualcomm chipset may actually launch earlier in the year than its predecessor – around the middle of the year, in fact.

This wild rumor comes from Digital Chat Station over on Weibo, and as always with Weibo posts, there’s a chance something got lost in (machine) translation, so do keep that in mind.

The next Elite chipset will allegedly have significantly improved GPU performance compared to the Snapdragon 8 Elite, and it will be built on a TSMC 3nm process.
