Qualcomm working on 2nm processor, will compete with Apple's A18 chip.
Qualcomm made waves with the reveal of their Pocket S2, a new Android-based handheld gaming device that will be powered by the Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 chipset and Roblox announced the launch of its new open-source model called Cube.
The popular chipset maker Qualcomm is currently working on the upcoming Snapdragon 8s Elite and it is expected to be announced in the near future.
Recent leaks, particularly from reliable source Digital Chat Station, suggest that Qualcomm is working on a chip labeled SM8735, which was initially believed to be the Snapdragon 8s Elite.
VNPT Technology, the innovation arm of VNPT Group, collaborated with Qualcomm Technologies and its Qualcomm Dragonwing NPro 7 Platform to deploy the Vietnam's first commercial XGS-PON Wi-Fi 7 service in October 2024.
