Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD 6 Gen 1

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 (SM6450) mobile platform was designed for Android-based smartphones and tablets and was launched in September 2022. The SoC (system-on-a-chip) is in the entry-level class and is based on ARM's v9 architecture.

The cryo CPU of the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 is based on four ARM Cortex-A78 performance cores with clock frequencies of up to 2.2 GHz and an efficiency cluster consisting of four Cortex-A55 cores with a clock frequency of 1.8 GHz.

An Adreno 710 is used as the integrated graphics unit. The Soc also integrates a Spectra ISP (200 MP photo), a dual-channel 16-bit LPDDR 2750 MHz memory controller, an X62 5G modem (max 2.9 GBit/s download, 1.6 Gbit/s upload), a Fastconnect 6700 Wi-Fi 6E / Bluetooth 5.2 modem and Hexagon.

The SoC is manufactured in the modern 4 nm process at Samsung.

Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x Gen 1

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD G3x Gen 1

The Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x Gen 1 (model number: SG8175P) is a revised version of the Snapdragon 888+ 5Gwhich is intended for use in Android-based gaming handhelds and tablets.

The SoC (system-on-a-chip) integrates a fast ARM Cortex-X1-based "Kryo 680 Prime Core" with up to 3.00 GHz and three additional fast Kryo 680 Gold performance cores (Cortex-A78-based) with up to 2.42 GHz. To save power, four additional Kyro 680 Silver (ARM Cortex-A55 based) cores have also been integrated, which operate at up to 1.8 GHz. An Adreno 660 is responsible for graphics acceleration.

The integrated Snapdragon X60 5G modem enables download speeds of up to 7.5 Gbit/s and upload speeds of up to 3 Gbit/s and supports DSS, mmWave and Sub6. The integrated FastConnect 6900 Wi-Fi modem supports all common standards, including Wi-Fi 6E with 6 GHz. Bluetooth version 5.2 is on board.

The SoC is manufactured using the 5 nm EUV process.
