Qualcomm just launched the top-tier Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, but it also teased the existence of one more chip. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 will sit just below the flagship in terms of performance, and now we know which brand will make the first phone with it.
OnePlus announced in a post (source in Chinese) on Weibo that it’ll be the first brand to launch a phone with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor. Even more intriguingly, Li Jie, president of OnePlus China, said in his own Weibo post (source in Chinese) that the premiere will be “global”.
Qualcomm teased the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 as a “one more thing” announcement at its Snapdragon Tech Summit conference.
