Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2

Qualcomm SD 6s 4G Gen 2

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 (SM6225-AF) is a low-performance SoC for Android-based smartphones and tablets. The processor unit comprises eight Kryo 260 CPU cores (4x ARM Cortex-A73 clocked at up to 2.9 GHz and 4x ARM Cortex-A53 clocked at up to 1.9 GHz). The Qualcomm Adreno 610 serves as the graphics unit.

Thanks to the higher clock speeds and the 6-nm process, the 6s G2 outperforms the older 6s G1 by about 35% in our tests. However, the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 and Gen 4 remain far ahead, even though these chips are significantly older.

The Snapdragon X11 is integrated as the LTE modem, supporting LTE Cat. 13 for both uplink and downlink, as well as 2x2 MIMO for the downlink. The maximum data transfer speed is 390 Mbit/s for downloads and 150 Mbit/s for uploads. For Wi-Fi, the chip only supports the older Wi-Fi 4 and Wi-Fi 5 standards.

For mass storage, it supports up to UFS 2.1. The upper limit for RAM is 32 GB of LPDDR4x-2133.

The SoC is manufactured using a 6-nm process.
