Soon the chip will be available in all the leading Android based phones. The first phone to feature this chip will most probably be Samsung Galaxy S9 or the next phone coming from Samsung after the S9.
When individual performance was checked on a model mobile phone in comparison with the Snapdragon 835 mounted on a Pixel XL phone, it was found to be working together. Here is the detail of the findings as reported in the Anandtech review site.
“Overall the Snapdragon 845’s system performance is a mixed bag,” the review concluded. “We had higher expectations from the new CPU changes, but it seems we’ve only gotten incremental improvements…But with that said, whatever Qualcomm doesn’t quite bring to the table with their CPU, they more than make up on the GPU side of matters. Qualcomm’s new Adreno 630 GPU easily impresses and widens the gap to the nearest competition.”
Despite these updates, the chip is being still made on the 10 nano meter scale, same as the previous Snapdragon 835.
The real performance can be known once the chip is released in the mainstream phones. Till then we have to bear with the Snapdragon 835.
