Specifications
The Snapdragon 8 Elite offers top-of-the-line specifications that significantly improve the user experience.The 3nm process enables better energy efficiency, extending battery life. Two main Kryo cores ensure faster execution of demanding applications, and six performance Kryo cores improve multitasking. The advantage of ARM processors is precisely that they have different cores, the main ones are focused on performance in demanding tasks, while the others (performance ones, of which there are six) are in charge of operations that require efficiency.
Adreno GPU enables impressive graphics performance, ideal for games and high resolutions. With support for 5G and WiFi 7, users can expect fast and stable connections, while UFS 4.0 enables fast application loading and data storage. High display frequencies (4K/60Hz and QHD+/144Hz) guarantee a smooth visual experience.
Processor’s AI capabilities
Special emphasis is placed on artificial intelligence (AI). Snapdragon 8 Elite uses advanced AI cores (neural processing unit – NPU) that enable faster and more efficient execution of complex tasks such as face, voice and object recognition in real time. Thanks to this NPU, devices can perform processes such as translation, battery optimization, and camera adjustments on the fly, without the need to connect to external servers. These capabilities also significantly improve photo and video performance, enabling advanced post-processing functions for cleaner, sharper images.
All these innovations make the Snapdragon 8 Elite key to future flagship devices, delivering an outstanding balance between power and energy efficiency, with a focus on gaming, AI and photography. This system-on-a-chip (SoC) sets new standards in the mobile chip industry, providing smarter and more efficient performance for users looking for premium specifications.
