Qualcomm separated the Qualcomm and Snapdragon brands

There have been reports that Qualcomm may change the naming method and change the development code to SM8450, which is the so-called Snapdragon 898 to Snapdragon 8 Gen1. At the Snapdragon Technology Summit held from November 30 to December 2, Qualcomm is likely to release a new generation of high-end SoC. Recently, Qualcomm officially issued an announcement, indicating that related rumors will soon become reality.

Qualcomm said that in the past ten years, the Snapdragon platform has grown into a huge technology ecosystem, and devices equipped with the Snapdragon platform provide the latest and most innovative technologies. There are now over 2 billion Snapdragon device users across the globe. At the same time, Qualcomm has expanded its first-class connectivity and device-side AI performance to new product categories, including wearable devices, tablets, XR devices, PCs, and automotive.

In order to develop Snapdragon into a leading cross-category technology brand, Qualcomm has decided to reform in many ways, including separating the Qualcomm and Snapdragon brands, and Snapdragon will become an independent product brand.
