Qualcomm have released their first device ever to be running on their brand new Snapdragon 888 5G chipset. Although the phone isn't really a looker, it's a device to show off the capabilities of the chip to other Android-based phone manufacturers.
The Snapdragon 888 5G by Qualcomm will feature 25% more processing power in the CPU and 35% better GPU compared to current 2020 flagship Android smartphones. Furthermore, the Snapdragon 888 chip will be the first time future-generation phones will make use of variable rate shading, which is what you'll find in Sony's Playstation 5 and the Xbox Series X from Microsoft. This means that future phones that use the Snapdragon 888 chip will experience ultra-smooth video and gaming framerates.
Android mobile phones have been making use of Snapdragon chips for the last decade and the brand has a solid foundation in the industry already. We can comfortably expect new phones coming out within the next few months to feature this impressive Snapdragon 888 chip.
