Dont Upgrade Your Android Device Yet
An interesting read today that many may find interesting.
New devices will launch very soon that promise to offer flagship features at a cheaper price.
Anyone thinking about splashing out on an expensive flagship phone might want to wait a few more weeks. US technology giant Qualcomm has just announced a new version of its premium Snapdragon processor very soon that aims to bring big features to devices at a lower price for consumers.
It's called the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 and it takes inspiration from the powerful 8 Gen 3 chip that's found in devices such as the latest and greatest Galaxy S24 Ultra from Samsung.
Qualcomm is also promising hyper-realistic mobile gaming with features such as accelerated Ray Tracing for smooth on-screen action.
The Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 sounds pretty mighty but it might mean users now have to do a bit of homework before buying their next device. For example, some manufacturers are still releasing phones with last year's incredibly impressive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor inside. Then there's that top-tier Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and now slightly less powerful 8s Gen 3 as well.
