With this significant shift in direction, Qualcomm embarks on a novel journey, driven not only by the revamped naming convention but also by its decision to forgo ARM-licensed cores. The self-designed Orion cores are engineered to yield higher peak efficiencies and enhanced energy effectiveness at your fingertips.
According to benchmarks, the Snapdragon Elite processor surpasses the A18 Professional chip’s performance in multi-core testing, while nearly matching its single-core efficiency.
Like its counterpart in PCs, the Snapdragon Elite for smartphones is expected to incorporate substantial artificial intelligence processing capabilities, enabling it to seamlessly navigate even the most graphically intensive mobile games.
As producers like Apple emphasize the inevitability of increasing demands on AI workloads, it is crucial to recognize the urgent need for ultra-high-performance chips in flagship devices.
