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.

No AV1 decoding, sigh.

However, the Snapdragon 7 gen 1 consumes a lot of energy and the Dimensity 7200 is the most energy efficient. Whose fault is it ?

      Poco F6 chipset 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣

        Didn't i realize 7s Gen 2 with Samsung 4nm feels like slightly improved from 778G? But still gotta overheating lol

                Snapdragon 6 is far lower price than Snapdragon 8. There's a reason why Sony don't use Snapdragon 7 for Xperia 10. If Sony make an Xperia phone with Snapdragon 7, it'd cost like $699 or something.

                      Exynos 1380, sd 4 gen 2, E1330 all use this 4nm from Samsung and they have good battery life and comparable or slightly better perfomance.

                      There are plenty of sd 4 gen 2 battery life test from redmi 12 5G youtube go and check, there is hands on review in this site check.

                            If this is going into the redmi note series, then this should be cheap and going into a bunch of new phones.

                              TECH--BEAST, 18 Sep 2023* U MISSED THE FUN PART : this chip is made by Samsung foundry If that's the case this won't be the battery life king after all. Which is a shame because that would have been the big selling point for a lesser 4nm chip.

                                Based on earlier leaks it is actually 4x A78 + 4x A55 combo(pretty similar to 6 gen 1 or 778G)
                                So technically it should have been called 6+ gen 1
                                but instead Qualcomm named it 7sG2
                                My theory:Maybe Qualcomm don't want people to relate it with SD-695 family ,(normally 7 series is considered upper midrange )so they can show off

                                  TECH--BEAST, 18 Sep 2023* U MISSED THE FUN PART : this chip is made by Samsung foundry Samsung 4nm is better than Tsmc 6nm anyway, i dont know why people hate better process because its From Samsung. Tsmc 4nm/5nm is better but good luck finding it at this price point.
