Qualcomm unveils Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 – a 4nm chipset for the midrange

18 September 2023
The new SoC is less powerful than any other 7-series chip.

      1. In that video it's Tsmc 4nm vs Samsung 4nm, here we are talking about Tsmc 6nm vs Samsung 4nm

      2. In that video it's Cortex A710 manufactured in Samsung node where two inferior tech met together here we talk about more efficient core A78.

      Now we have more data from same guy Geekerwan to prove what I said

      Snapdragon 4 gen 2 is made by Samsung you can compare it to Dimensity 900, 810, 700, G99 Sd 695, Sd 4 gen 1 etc.

The Samsung ones use up too much power to reach the same performance. Meaning, in the real world when the phone will throttle due to heat and lack of power, Samsung will perform worse. Even if peak performance is the same. https://youtu.be/s0ukXDnWlTY

            Lovelandmark, 22 Sep 2023The scores are comparable to SD 778 meaning that we're... moreYup, at this point I'm mostly concerned about efficiency and that will be hard to achieve if they use A710 cores. Let's hope full specs come out soon.

              ashrobb, 21 Sep 2023Either they keep it at A78/A55 or go all the way with the A... moreThe scores are comparable to SD 778 meaning that we're probably looking at a SD778v2. Then again, SD7 G1 used 1+3 A710 / 4 A510 and scored virtually the same as SD778, at least CPU wise. It's less likely to be A715/A510 (2022) though since if it did, it should've crushed D7200 or even D8100, yet it only beat the former.

First few weeks after I bought Samsung A54 5G, the battery life was horrible compared to Poco F2 Pro. But now, it is better compared to the first few weeks. Especially now the phone has more apps installed and more workload.
                But performance wise, it is much worse compared to Poco F2 Pro.
                Use it mainly for Whatsapp, in Poco F2 Pro I can quickly send photos without needing to wait for the thumbnails to load. However, A54 I need to wait until the thumbnails loaded then only I can click the folder and send it. Or else, the app will freeze

                  Lovelandmark, 20 Sep 2023Calling it a mere rebrand is slightly incorrect. Even if th... moreEither they keep it at A78/A55 or go all the way with the A715/A510(tweaked). If they make this on A710/A510(first release) plus the Samsung fab process, it will suffer the same fate all phones with the 7 Gen 1 have: mediocre thermals and underwhelming battery life.

                    Anonymous , 19 Sep 2023This is just a rebrand of 778G/780G but overclocked. The 7+... moreCalling it a mere rebrand is slightly incorrect. Even if the internals are shared with SD 778/780/782, do remember the 7s G2 is fabbed under Samsung 4nm node. So, technically a brand-new silicon, but no major change whatsoever.

                    I'd be surprised if the CPU cores are actually A710/A510-based instead of CPUs from SD778. In that case, 7s G2 might be a compelling choice. That is, if it doesn't toast as its Samsung fab suggest

                      It's all about da money dawg, ain't no way they don't earn dat dolla bills yo,

The 7+ g2 was too good to be true because it is basically a flagship SoC for much cheaper. I guess they changed their mind and don't want to offer that chip for 7 series pricing.

                            This chip is old and boring, although it will still gets the job done for most people. and I also agree it should be call 6 series at this point.

If you do a little research you see how Android needs to meet a few conditions (unknown to most users) to optimize properly. Conditions that most people don't do anymore in many cases, because they imply slow charging methods and actually leaving your phone plugged in, fully charged and idle for a few hours. Without this behaviour, you'll never have a fully optimized OS unless you trigger it yourself via terminal or ADB.

                                      That's probably why Google is introducing a new compilation service for ART optimization with Android 14. Hopefully it will be easier to trigger it now
