The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is here - Cortex-X4, 4nm, Generative AI, 240fps graphics

24 October 2023
Along with enhanced camera capabilities. The first Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 devices are coming in weeks.

Sort by:

"Qualcomm's Sensing Hug securely accesses your personal data like favorite activities, fitness level, and location to give better AI assistant responses."

Now, this definitely needs some explanation as it leaves open whether or not this KI is collecting private data from the phone with or without permission and whether or not it is sending private data to suspect places on the internet.

    I am saying even sd 865 do 8k 30, after that sd 888 also, after that 8 gen 1 also, after that 8 gen 2 also. I know 8 gen 3 after 4 generations of upgrade from sd 870 is powerful enough to do 8k 60 but it provides only 8k 30.

      Super Android 22, 25 Oct 2023No, why would they be? Flagship dimensity chips are very go... moreJust the slower internet , weaker ISP, much weaker GPU compared to snapdragon counterpart. Mali/Immortalis is 2 gens behind Adreno.

      Yeah, nothing wrong.

        harshitraj230, 25 Oct 2023I am sure that dimensity 9300 and Exynos 2400 will give 8k ... moreAny phone with even 865 can do 8K@30.
        Brands simply offer 8K@24 as own choice.

          sixth, 25 Oct 2023People here talking about which SoC is faster, what gen the... moreu can wait for the longest time u want it to be😊

            Exynos like snapdragon also only give 8k video recording at 30 fps from genration to generations but, I am really sure that it will support 8k at 60 fps recording with it's powerful 10 core CPU and 12 core GPU.

              I am sure that dimensity 9300 and Exynos 2400 will give 8k video recording at 60 fps. Dimensity 9200 from mediatek is first chip to get 8k video recording 30 fps support. Because it has 1 high performance cortex x4, 3 medium performance cortex x4 and 4 low performance cortex a720.

                Didn't read every word of it, but sure seems like a privacy disaster with all those AI tasks making it easy to decode everything you're actually doing in life.

                "" Audiophiles will be glad to know that the new chip can deliver 24-bit 96 kHz lossless music over Bluetooth. ""
                Oh yeah? Last I checked, audiophiles wanted quality over quantity. I'm an audiophile and I'm not excited about all this, because its unrelated to quality.

                  Does anyone has my answer my answer why that not happen?

                    Only generative AI and 240 fps gaming maybe at 1080p, 1440p or 2k only good features are added. All other things are exactly same. Atleast I expect 8k video recording at 60 fps will surely come but that not happen from sd 870 which supports 8k video recording at 30 fps. It not happen even after 4 generations of upgrade after sd 870.

                      SarruKen, 25 Oct 2023Inb4 "muh muh a17 pro is on 3nm so its better..."... moreif the 3 nm is just marketing, how come iphone gives better battery life with a smaller mAh battery ? why macboocks have the best battery life , far some the normal intel/amd laptops even when running windows ? ?software optimization can go so far

                        Even not so much improvement from sd 8 gen 2.

                          Caeruleum7125, 24 Oct 2023It's cool and all that they're making more and mo... moredo you know why there is no phone to provide portrait videos at 60fps and HDR at the same time? because it requires ton of processing so more power will always be needed and made use of it in certain situation .
                          but yes, battery drain should be a top priority

                            Can anyone tell me why only 8k video recording at 30 fps from 5 generations?

                              Anonymous, 25 Oct 2023gen 2 is better than gen 1? no way! no one would have ever ... moreRead carefull it's 8 gen 2 vs Bionic not vs Gen 1

                                sd 870, sd 888 can do 8k recording at 30 fps without hdr , sd 8 gen 1 and sd 8 gen 2 can do 8k recording at 30 fps with hdr but why sd 8 gen 3 cannot do 8k at 60 fps without hdr ?

                                  Hemedans, 25 Oct 2023Overall 8 gen 2 is better Soc, Bionic is better only in cpu... moregen 2 is better than gen 1? no way! no one would have ever guessed that!

                                    Sad there is no suppurt for the latest LPDDR5T , it looks like the D9300 will be ahead of it in the Ram game

                                      DaFink, 25 Oct 2023Wow, this was only announced a day ago. Not a single member... moreNo it's just common knowledge that 8 Gen 2 is better, so 8 Gen 3 will also be even better. Common sense.

                                      A17 Pro still has a long way to go to catch up with Adreno GPU. Only leads in CPU, but the difference is practically unnoticeable. Go see gaming comparisons, which is ACTUAL real-life applications, not your fake geekbench/antutu synthetic benchmarks.

                                        People here talking about which SoC is faster, what gen they need to wait for, none are mentioning how the 8+Gen1 phones will be $329 and the 8 Gen2 will be $429 with UFS 4.0 next year...
