Qualcomm Technologies announced the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 Mobile Platform with more features targeting makers of premium smartphones.
Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 features Qualcomm Kryo CPU that boasts peak speeds up to 2.91GHz, for over 50 percent improved performance, while the Qualcomm Adreno GPU provides 2x improved performance. Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 achieves up to 13 percent improved power efficiency. On-device AI is integrated across the entire platform.
Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 optimizes power and performance by rendering content in focus at full resolution and the scene’s background at a lower resolution. Volumetric Rendering adds more realism to game scenes with particle graphics like fog and smoke. Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 features Snapdragon Sound with Qualcomm aptX for better music streaming and lag-free sound for gaming.
Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 features an 18-bit Triple ISP, allowing users to capture in mega low light mode — snapping 30 images and merging the best parts into one shot for brighter, clearer, more colorful photos after dark. Consumers can capture over 4,000x more camera data for extreme dynamic range with vivid color and clarity. Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 supports up to 200MP photo capture and staggered HDR video capture with triple exposure from two cameras simultaneously.
The integrated Qualcomm AI Engine, which has over 2x improved AI performance with 40 percent better performance per Watt than its predecessor, offers AI-enhanced experiences for utmost simplicity. The Qualcomm Sensing Hub with a dedicated AI processor powers contextually aware use cases such as user activity recognition and acoustic scene detection. Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 enables AI Super Resolution to intelligently upscale game scenes or photos for superior visual quality from a low-resolution image (1080p to 4K).
Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2, powered by the Snapdragon X62 5G Modem-RF System, offers download speeds of up to 4.4 Gbps. This platform includes support for 5G/4G Dual-Sim Dual Active (DSDA) so consumers can utilize two SIMs when traveling or to separate their work and personal communications.
Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 features the Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 Mobile Connectivity System to deliver Wi-Fi — at up to 3.6 Gbps.
