Qualcomm To Reveal Big News in Upcoming Snapdragon Summit

Android users can expect good news from the Summit as Qualcomm unveils its next-generation Snapdragon processors, giving Android a big boost.

Additionally, Express UK reports that the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will be the chosen processor for the Samsung Galaxy S23. Samsung will allegedly be using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in their new device rather than the split Qualcomm and Exynos chip in their previous S devices.

"I think we're going to announce our next-generation Snapdragon at our Tech Summit in a couple of weeks. I think what we see right now is, structurally, we're very well positioned." Qualcomm head Christiano Amon stated. "In handsets, we entered into a new multiyear agreement with Samsung, expanding the use of Snapdragon platforms for future premium Samsung Galaxy products globally."

However, users should still take the speculations with a grain of salt as Samsung is yet to officially confirm the news regarding the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, although Qualcomm has made huge hints about the upgrade this year, according to Android Police.
