Qualcomm's push for 5G will soon hit some of the cheapest phones on the market. Today, the company announced 5G is coming to the Snapdragon 4-series in "early 2021."

Qualcomm says the goal of these chips is to enable "5G for everyone," and the chips will show up in phones ranging from $125 to $250. The 4 series is where Qualcomm's mass-market sales really happen, and the company says it will be able to reach 3.5 billion smartphone users with these new chips. The only cheaper chips in Qualcomm's lineup are the 2 series, but those phones make up the bargain-basement $100-and-below market and are actually pretty rare.
