Qualcomm presented Snapdragon 660 and 630 processors
|Manufacturer of highly utilized chips in mobile phones, Qualcomm, revealed Snapdragon 660 and 630 processors that will make the mid class phones stronger. These chips will bring more power to the photography and will further enhance security.
Phones that will have these chips will be able to utilize 24 MP cameras, or dual cameras up to 16 MP (660) and 13 MP (630).Both Snapdragon 660 and 630 will include a Snapdragon X12 LTE modem that will support the speeds up to 600 Mbps and will bring the Bluetooth 5 compatibility.
CPU and GPU of the Snapdragon 660 were also being upgraded. The octa-core Kryo 260 CPU will bring 20% improvement in performance over the previous 653 model, and Adreno 512 GPU will be 30% better than Adreno 508.
The Snapdragon 660 is available now while 630 is expected to launch at the end of the May.
We know that HMD Global is cooking something for the higher mid-range class of smartphones. In addition, it is reasonable to say that Nokia 7 (or 8) could be one of the first phones with Snapdragon 660 processor. It would be nice if HMD could finally bring previously launched phones in the market and not make us wait a lot after new models have been announced.
Cheers marty for the tip 🙂
