The Snapdragon 855 announced by Qualcomm and the existing Snapdragon X50 LTE modem are all that Android smartphones would need to crank out 5G-ready smartphones. Add to that the fact that most major carriers in the world, such as SK Telecom, LG Uplus and KT in South Korea, along with Verizon and AT&T in the U.S. have already started rolling out 5G networks. With all the required things in place, Qualcomm is confident that most smartphone makers will release their 5G devices by the end of next year.

Apart from Apple and Huawei, most smartphone makers go for a Qualcomm-made silicon (Samsung too but just in the U.S.) for their premium offerings and it wouldn’t be surprising to see most high-end 2019 smartphones get their firepower from the Snapdragon 855 chipset.
