Qualcomm was previously reported to be in a rush with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus announcement as it wanted it to effectively replace the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Progress with the upcoming SoC seems highly favorable, as one individual claims that TSMC’s 4nm architecture has more than 70 percent current yield rate. At this rate, Qualcomm’s fastest chipset should be out in no time.

Qualcomm was said to try its luck with TSMC for mass producing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus, with a reason given that Samsung’s low yield rate of 4nm wafers forced its hand. This short-term setback also means that fewer Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 shipments would be delivered to customers, and they will certainly be displeased with Qualcomm’s current efforts. On Twitter, Sam states that TSMC’s 4nm current yield rate is more than 70 percent, making its production higher than Samsung’s, though he did not provide a percentage for the Korean giant.
