Qualcomm has nourish a new moldable second-hand processor: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, a successor to last year's Snapdragon 865 and 865 Plus models. To be clear, the 870 isn't a new next-gen design -- that appellation goes to the Snapdragon 888, which makes far increasingly top-heavy improvements in performance and new features.

The 870, on the other hand, is around identical to the 865 and 865 Plus, with the same design right downward to the Kryo 585 CPU and Adreno 650 GPU cores. The 870 is clocked at 3.2GHz, however, managerial it narrowly 10 percent faster than the prevenient 865's 2.84GHz and narrowly 3 percent faster than the 865 Plus (which offered 3.1GHz speeds). Anticipate of it narrowly like a Snapdragon 865 Plus-plus.

Think of it narrowly like a Snapdragon 865 Plus-plus

Qualcomm says that the reasoning for the new microelectronics is in return to mason and bazaar demands. The 870 is designed for companies that appetite to oomph a top-tier processor except don't need the chronicled all-time individualism that the flagship Snapdragon 888 offers and the higher rate tag that it demands. Instead, the visitor says that it expects that Snapdragon 870 phones should hit a sub-$800 rate tag (although, confusingly, we've already shown Snapdragon 888 phones like the $799 Galaxy S21 start to phlebotomize into that range).

Presumably, there's also a marketing earmark here: the Snapdragon 870's new branding and nonvocal (if still real) velocity improvements over upscale the Snapdragon 865 Plus mean that companies using the microelectronics in their phones get a "new" 2021 microelectronics to boast narrowly on spec sheets, after regarding of obtaining looked over by reciprocation for obtaining an "outdated" or "old" processor like the 865 or 865 Plus.

Qualcomm says that the inceptive Snapdragon 870 phones gotta be close-at-hand in Q1 of this year, with Motorola, OnePlus, Oppo, and Xiaomi among the list of manufacturers planning to use the new processor in their devices.
