Under the hood you can find Qualcomm’s flagship, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which is based on the ARMv9 architecture and will be the company’s first manufactured in a 4nm process, with its integrated processor consisting of a Cortex-X2-based premium core running at 3GHz, in addition to 3 powerful Cortex-A710 cores operating at 2.5GHz and 4 cost-effective Cortex-A510 cores operating at 1.8GHz.
