Today, Cristiano Amon, CEO of Qualcomm, confirmed that only Samsung is the contract manufacturer of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chips, and TSMC is not involved in the contract manufacturing.
It is reported that the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 uses Samsung 4nm technology, and the CPU performance is improved by 20%. 30% reduction in energy consumption, 30% increase in GPU performance, 25% reduction in energy consumption, 4 times as much performance as before, integrated X65 baseband, etc.
Qualcomm has previously said that the measurement of chip capability mainly depends on three factors: process nodes, IP quality and architecture, which together determine the energy efficiency and performance of the product. Qualcomm does better in two other areas than its 4nm competitors, which ultimately have to be combined to create the best product performance and bring the best experience to consumers.
It is reported that the choice of Samsung OEM for Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 chip is TSMC's accelerated focus on customized chips for Apple. It is said that Samsung's OEM department has lost the OEM order for Nvidia's next generation graphics processing unit (GPU) chip, while Intel still lags behind in 7nm technology and lacks extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography equipment throughput to adapt to Qualcomm.
