According to the leaker, Qualcomm is developing two new chips with model numbers SM8635 and SM7675. Among them, the situation of SM7675 is clear, and there is a high probability that it is Snapdragon 7+ Gen3, which is the strongest chip in the Snapdragon 7 series, and it is expected that the performance may be between Snapdragon 8+ and Snapdragon 8 Gen2.
The positioning of the SM8635 is more confusing, and the whistleblower claims that the chip uses a 29GHz Cortex X4 super core, using Adreno 735 GPU in graphics, Antutu evaluation score is about 1.7 million points, which is stronger than Snapdragon 8 Gen2 in performance, second only to Snapdragon 8 Gen3 flagship chip.
It is reported that the SM8635 may be a low-frequency version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen3, 2The 9GHz clock speed is higher than the 3 of the Snapdragon 8 Gen33GHz is much lower, and other aspects are expected to be reduced.
There are also some people who believe that the SM8635 is the Snapdragon 8S Gen2, which is another upgraded version of the previous generation of chips. Considering that the SM8635's main frequency is too low, if it is upgraded based on the Snapdragon 8 Gen2, it seems that it cannot be surpassed in terms of performance, so the credibility is not high.
There is no doubt that SM8635 and SM7675 are both chips that are very suitable for high-performance mobile phones, and high-performance positioning phones will usher in a battle after the year. Xiaomi POCO F6 is expected to be equipped with SM8635, and new phones of Redmi, IQOO, and Realme brands are likely to be equipped with SM7675 chips.
