[br][/div][br]Just a few days ago, Qualcomm announced Snapdragon 665 and Snapdragon 730/730G chipsets for the mid-range smartphones. The Snapdragon 665 was an incremental upgrade of 2017's Snapdragon 660 chipset which can be seen on a lot of latest budget and mid-range phones. Snapdragon 665 comes with upgrades in GPU, ISP, and Manufacturing process. On the other hand, Snapdragon 730 is a generation upgrade and can be seen as a successor of Snapdragon 710 which was launched last year. Snapdragon 730 comes with powerful Kryo 470 cores, Adreon 618 GPU and Spectra 350 ISP which brings flagship-level performance to the mid-tier.[br][br]Last year, we shared the exclusive details of Snapdragon 730 and today we are sharing some specifications and features of the upcoming Snapdragon 735 which will some interesting upgrades over the Snapdragon 730. Let's take a look at them.[br][br][strong][strong]Snapdragon 735 Specifications:[/strong][/strong][br][br]
[br][br]The upcoming Snapdragon 735 will be manufactured on the [strong]7nm LPP process[/strong]. This could be Samsung's Euv Based 7nm Process which went into production in October 2018. Samsung claims the 7nm LPP process delivers up to a 40% increase in area efficiency with 20% higher performance or up to 50% lower power consumption as compared to 10nm FinFET predecessors. Compared to Snapdragon 730's 8nm process, the gain would be 10-20%.[br][br]On the Modem and RF side, we are going to see a big upgrade over 730 as then Snapdragon 735 would come with an [strong]integrated 5G modem[/strong]. Right now, even the flagships phones are squeezing in a Separate 5g Modem in the form of the Snapdragon X50. An integrated 5G modem means OEMs will be able to make thinner, lighter and cheaper 5G devices.[br][br]On the CPU side, we are going to see a [strong]1+1+6 core cluster[/strong] instead of the 2+6 we saw on Snapdragon 730. There will be 1 Kryo Prime core running at 2.9GHz, 1 Kryo core at 2.4GHz and 6 Kryo cores at 1.8GHz. The GPU is going to be upgraded to [strong]Adreno 620[/strong] with a max frequency of 750MHz. [br][br]For memory, we are going to see addressability for [strong]up to 16GB of LPDDR4X RAM[/strong] and for Machine learning we are going to see a new [strong]NPU 220[/strong] running at up to 1GHz. This means we will be seeing mid-range phones with 10 or 12GB of RAM soon and the new NPU will definitely help in various AI features that OEMs are adding these days.[br][br]The specifications for WLAN, Display, Camera, Video, Peripherals, and Security are going to be almost the same as what we have on Snapdragon 730. There is support for 3360x1440 21:9 aspect ratio displays. For storage, we have UFS 2.1 and eMMC 5.1 as well. For video, there is support for 4K at 60FPS.[br][br]Overall, Snapdragon 735 looks like an exciting package. It will be Qualcomm's first mid-range chip on the 7nm process and the first mid-range chip with an integrated 5G modem as well. Chipsets like Snapdragon 675 And 710 have already bought flagship like experience to the mid-range segments and the introduction of Snapdragon 735 will take it one step ahead.[br][br]We expect Qualcomm to announce the Snapdragon 735 in [strong]Q4 this year[/strong] and users can expect Snapdragon 735 powered smartphones sometime in the [strong]first half of 2020[/strong].[br][br][br][h3][a href="https://www.suggestphone.com/blog/snapdragon-735-details"]Source[/a][/h3] |
