Yup, Qualcomm finally realized. The SD 8G1 is straight up garbage but Im sure there will be people here justifying their sh11ty purchases

I went for the Lenovo P12 Pro instead of the Galaxy Tab S8+ because of that garbage SD 8G1. Not buying anything with SOC made buy Samsung

Waiting for that and still using Samsung S20 with SD865 made by TSCM. I briefly used Samsung S22 but returned it due to horrible battery life. Apple has amazing batter life (double than any samsung) sadly I can't stand iOS haha

Finally. Every chip made by Sh1tsung has issue it becomes a pattern. Im shocked how a giant in tech screwed up that bad

nanagdad, 25 Mar 2022Yes no wonder I'm feeling sorry for em buying mini poc... moreYeah. The snapdragon 8 gen 1 and 888 chips are both quite poor in terms of heat generation. Will be interesting to see how the TSMC version turns out.

It's so bad to the point they have to announce this earlier than expected.

finally, TSMC will be great for semiconductor than samsung chips
whatever fabrication does save your battery life, but we don't want overheating asf.

I guess you'll need that "Ice-Skin cooling case for Find X5 Pro" from Oppo when that ceramic starts heating due to Qualcomm's SD 8G1. Scamsung chip foundries are meh! I will never buy a chip fabricated by them. Exynos, 888, 8G1, even Tensor causing problems for Google now due to Samsung. Look at how powerful, cool and efficient Apple chips have become due to TSMC no Android comes close kinda hurts me. iPhone 13 pro with smaller battery capacity can do 11 hrs plus in SOT & remain cool while vivo now hitting 70°C that's insane, Qualcomm save your reputation.

Aierlan, 25 Mar 2022It's their own free choice though to buy them so would... moreYes no wonder I'm feeling sorry for em buying mini pocket heaters that Oppo even has to release a special breathing case to knockout a degree or two in temp °C 😀 innovation! Yeah right.

nanagdad, 25 Mar 2022Kinda suck for people spending $1k plus phones with that he... moreIt's their own free choice though to buy them so wouldn't have much sympathy. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy a snapdragon 8 gen 1 phone

I'm curious to see how they will name the new 7-series chips since there are more chips than in the 8-series which usually have the base version and the plus version.

Very good news because manufacturers are currently pushing the SD 695 down our throats for a premium. I just hope my phone that is on its last legs makes it to summer lol
