Qualcomm to complicate the naming of Snapdragon mobile processors again
In 2021, Qualcomm made naming parts of its mobile processors simple and straightforward. But in the near future, the naming scheme will become complex again.
Here's What We Know
Things seem to be getting better. Flagship chips are called Snapdragon 8 Gen X, mid-range processors are called Snapdragon 7 Gen X, and models for cheaper smartphones are called Snapdragon 6 Gen X and Snapdragon 4 Gen X. Although Qualcomm sometimes introduces confusion, such as with the release of the Snapdragon 782G.
In the near future, Qualcomm will have processors with P and T indices in its range. For example, Snapdragon 7 Gen 2T and Snapdragon 7 Gen 2P. This is reported by insider @heyitsyogesh.
What's interesting is that the American chipmaker switched to the new naming scheme not as a joke, but because the previous one was complicated. But as we can see, Qualcomm is not looking for easy ways and will again make life harder for everyone.
