The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is first in line for the following year and is expected to come and prove to be an excellent gaming phone, as it is supposed to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
If the reports are to be believed, Samsung will power the forthcoming Galaxy S25 with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip in a few regions and the Exynos 2500 in others. While both chips will most likely be quite powerful, noticeably, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is expected to feature an extremely powerful GPU.
As per the report revealed by the well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, it is speculated that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip has an exceptionally powerful GPU for improved and upgraded graphics performance. It is reported that the Qualcomm chip can run Genshin Impact at the native 1080p resolution.
At the moment, it appears that the game is running at 720p resolution by default, and even then, many phones struggle to maintain the 60fps frame rate with graphics quality set to the highest.
Qualcomm started actively building up the development of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and has decided to debut it on October 1, 2024. This forthcoming flagship chip is reported to be manufactured using TSMC’s 3nm process and feature Qualcomm’s custom CPU core named Oryon.
However, these CPU cores are already housed in the Snapdragon X Elite chipset built for ARM Windows laptops, which delivers impressive performance. Given this prospect, it is expected that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 can also offer impressive and efficient performance.
Apart from all that, the Xiaomi 14 will be the first phone to debut featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, which could be introduced sometime in October 2024.
