According to the Weibo insider, smartphones should focus on improving the performance of the screen and their batteries due to a great demand for devices that are more resistant and last. Smartphones equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 can count on small improvements in their camera department.
However, the initial production Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chips appear to be more expensive to manufacture, so it’s possible that companies will make some cuts and use cheaper materials in their phones.
According to another forum user, there is a prediction that companies that use metal frames are considering switching to ones made of plastic next year, as everything has increased considerably in value. Considering that the price of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 may be high, this makes sense, but they are nothing more than rumors.
At this time, there is not much official information about the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, just that it will use an Oryon CPU and other specific details. It is possible that the new chip will be revealed at the Snapdragon Summit event, which will take place in October this year.
