The Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 was unveiled last year, and at the moment, it is the latest and greatest the company has to offer. Since then, we have seen the chip appear in several flagship devices, including the Galaxy S21 series, ROG Phone 5, and a few devices from Oppo and Xiaomi, along with the upcoming OnePlus 9 series. Needless to say, there are a lot of devices that are still going to release with the Snapdragon 888 chipset, but the latest report suggests that Qualcomm might not be able to supply enough Snapdragon 888 chips.

A new report coming from Reuters points out that Qualcomm is struggling to meet the demand for both the Snapdragon 888 and the mid-range chips. This struggle is happening because of a global semiconductor shortage. Sources familiar with the detail have talked about how Qualcomm chips have hit the production of Samsung's mid-range and low-end models, and the company's flagship Snapdragon 888 chips are also in short supply.
