Snapdragon 898, the specifications of the next TOP of the range SoC emerge

Qualcomm unveiled this year Snapdragon 888 but during the conference she let slip a few details about her successor. Snapdragon 895, this is the name with which the heir of the current top-of-the-range SoC could be presented. Yet this name contrasts with what has emerged in the past few hours since reliable Chinese sources. Snapdragon 898 is the name that could take the place of 895. But for what reason? We think we know.

Snapdragon 898 could be the processor that we have come to know as Snapdragon 895. Let's see all the specifications together

It was inevitable that he would be called Snapdragon 898 the next top-of-the-range processor that we will see on the 2022 flagships. Basically we didn't expect anything else. If we think about it, the name is not a surprise: we went from 865 to 888, which we thought was called 875. Now the same thing is happening, but in reverse: we will pass from 888 no longer to 895, but to 898. In short, a pattern that repeats itself. But having said that, the sources we refer to have revealed what are the key specs of the SoC.

The Snapdragon 898 processor will receive a Cortex-X2 super core with a frequency of 3.09 GHz. The source claims that its performance will be significantly higher than that of its predecessor. As shown by the preliminary test results of GeekBench 5, in single-threaded mode, the Snapdragon 898 scores around 1250 points, and when all cores are used, the platform scores around 4000 points. 

This is significantly higher than that of the Snapdragon 888. The source believes the AnTuTu score will exceed one million points for the first time. So far, the record of 845 210 points in AnTuTu belongs to the smartphone RedMagic 6R.

  • Adreno GPU 730
  • Spectra 680 ISP image processor
  • millimeter wave downlink up to 1 GHz and Sub-6 D speeds at 400 MHz
