Qualcomm announces Snapdragon 865 4G and 765 5G chips

Qualcomm has finally unveiled its next-generation chips for future mobile phones. It includes the flagship Snapdragon 865 4G chip and the mid-range Snapdragon 765 5G chip.

It's a little bit odd that Qualcomm didn't have a Snapdragon 865 variant with integrated 5G. In comparison, both Huawei and MediaTek have a version of their flagship chips with built-in 5G.

If you want 5G, pair it with Snapdragon X55

But, Qualcomm said that it can be paired with the Snapdragon X55 5G modem, the company's 2nd-gen 7nm 5G modem with sub-6GHz support.

Not much has been shared about the Snapdragon 865 though. What we are sure is it is more powerful than the current Snapdragon 855 Plus chip.

On the other hand, Qualcomm also announced the Snapdragon 765 mid-range chips. The interesting part? There is a Snapdragon 865 variant with built-in 5G.

It simply means that we'll see more mid-range phones next year with 5G connectivity and this is Qualcomm's way to make 5G more available to the mass market.

But again, not much was shared about the chip. Qualcomm said that it brings advanced AI processing and select Snapdragon Elite Gaming experiences.

We expect Qualcomm partners such as Samsung, LG, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Nokia, and more to load with these chips next year.

Stay tuned for more updates!
