half of 2022.The informant Digital Chat Station decided to get ahead of events by declassifying the operating frequencies and comparing TSMC’s creation with the current 8 Gen 1 produced by Samsung. The architecture of the cores has not changed, but all of them have had their operating frequencies raised by 0.2 GHz: the ultra-powerful Cortex-X2 core now operates at 3.2 GHz, the Cortex-A710 trio at 2.7 GHz, and the energy-efficient Cortex-A510 at 2.0 GHz. The graphics accelerator will be the same Adreno 730.

The source notes that according to "official data"power consumption is reduced by ±30 and energy efficiency is improved by the same amount, but emphasizes that it is better to wait for the first tests of real devices. Fortunately, you won’t have to wait long for them - it is likely that the first smartphones on Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ will be presented in June.
