Anonymous, 26 Oct 2021The 680 is low-key really interesting to me. 6nm version of... moreSD 680 is more like 2017 chip (SD 660) in 6nm process node. Yeah, should be a battery life champion on low-end phones. I agree with another poster who mentioned that it should have been named as SD 666 for clarity purpose. I guess Qualcomm doesn't want people to identify the hierarchy of the SoC just using the name, hence gave this a higher number (SD 680) than SD 670, 678 which are far better in single-core performance.

    Atleast make 5G Standard on these new upcoming SoC.

      they should have named the Snapdragon 680 to Snapdragon 666 since 670 is using kryo 3xx and 678/5 has kryo 4xx

        New??
        That's old stuff with glorify tweaks

          OhNom, 27 Oct 2021I think the same, I expected something like an RTX 6090 or ... moreit's a mobile soc not desktop

            OhNom, 27 Oct 2021I don't think so, the 2xx series doesn't exist an... more690 is already better than half 7xx series.
            No problem.

              I'm looking forward to Mediatek

                    Anonymous, 26 Oct 2021Imagine being a Snapdragon shill in 2021.Imagine defending Mediacuck in 2021. They literally lie on benchmarks by either outright banning them or enabling special performance profiles in .ini files to essentially get to chip run a "scorched earth" session during benching which is not representative of sustained performance. There are sources for this on this very site.

                    If you want reliability and honesty, you need to go elsewhere, snapdragon, exynos, apple, pretty much anyone will do, but not them. Get real.

                          Take Realme 7 5G as an example henny.
                          But of course, since you're a Qualcomm shill and a Mediatek hater, you'll disregard any criticism.

                            Im really intereeted to see how both 695 and 680 will perform. Honestly the 600 series is so forgotten and underrated

                                The 680 is low-key really interesting to me. 6nm version of a 2019 chip? That feels like it's made for a budget battery life champ like the Moto G Power range.

                                I wouldn't get one myself, but I could see myself recommending a 680-powered model to friends and family who don't care about mobile gaming or 5G.

                                  Some of these chips have downgraded 4G capabilities compared to their non-plus versions.
