Qualcomm made the Snapdragon 845 official just a couple of days back at its Tech Summit. The processor allows it to gain sure footing on 10nm, and launch more refined silicon compared against the Snapdragon 835. Competition in flagship smartphone processors is as tough as ever, particularly due to Apple’s massive gains this year. Cupertino launched the A11 Bionic, which extended its dominance to multi-core performance as well. Now, it’s Qualcomm’s turn to respond. While the 845’s launch itself didn’t come featuring technical details, Qualcomm’s made true on its promise. So wondering what next year’s Android flagships will be capable of? Take a look below to find out more.

This year’s Snapdragon 845 is an interesting processor. With its predecessor, Qualcomm aimed to improve power efficiency but didn’t focus that much on power. Given that 10nm brought several improvements on board by default, the US chip giant can be forgiven. However, with the 845, it might’ve followed an approach that’s exactly opposite. The processor is manufactured on Samsung’s 10nm LPP, promised to offer a 10% performance boost. Compared against this, the Snapdragon 845’s 2.8GHz frequency is somewhat larger than you’d expect from the 835’s 2.45GHz.
