Qualcomm announces Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 3

Qualcomm has just announced the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 3, which targets mid-range smartphones.

This chipset is built on a 4nm TSMC process, bringing a flagship-grade CPU. In detail, this is an octa-core processor consisting of one Cortex-X4 at 2.8GHz, four Cortex-A720 cores at 2.6GHz, and three Cortex-A520 cores running at 1.9GHz.

Qualcomm claims that this chipset has a 15% processor performance boost over the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2.

For the GPU, there is a lack of ray tracing support which suggests that this chipset isn’t derived from last year’s flagship processor.

But even so, Qualcomm claims that the GPU is 45% faster than the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2’s GPU.

Additionally, the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 GPU has support for super-resolution in games, frame interpolation, and 120Hz support at QHD+ resolutions. But as a fair warning, AV1 decoding isn’t supported.

For cameras, the new chipset seems to have similar capabilities to the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 10.

This is inclusive of a triple image signal processor capable of seamless switching between three lenses, support for 200MP single cameras, triple 36MP cameras, and real-time semantic segmentation (up to 12 layers) in photos and videos.

The new chipset supports up to 4K @ 60fps HDR video recording, with other notable features like Google Ultra HDR photo support, 1080p @ 240fps slow-mo support, and multi-frame noise reduction.

To wrap this up, the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3’s other features are inclusive of the FastConnect 7800 wireless connectivity suite (Wi-Fi 7 support with HBS Multi-Link and Bluetooth 5.4), LPDDR5X RAM support, UFS 4.0 storage, Spatial Audio, and Snapdragon Seamless support.
