Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 rebranded (again) in new leak

Qualcomm is hyping its impending first-generation mobile system Oryon has prompted a famous leaker to claim that the chipset it will be based on won’t actually be called (and“officially“) Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 after all.

As a result, the next flagship processor is now referred to under a different name on the Digital Chat Station Weibo site: the Snapdragon 8 Extreme Edition. However, this contradicts a previous leak which hinted that the same SoC (also known until now as SM8750) was to be called 8 Elite instead.

It is possible that Digital Chat Station’s new claim, written in Chinese, was misinterpreted by machine translation; in this case, the‘”Extreme Edition” could actually be the successor to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version if not the standard variant standard variant of the same chipset.

Regardless, it makes sense for Qualcomm to make such a change, given that the silicon in question is not, after all, technically a direct component of the 8 Gen 3 chip directly. It will feature at least 1 custom CPU core for the first time, instead of relying solely on ARM ones (like the Dimensity 9400).

Regardless, the Snapdragon 8 Extreme Edition is now tipped to power a number of the next wave of high-end Android smartphones, the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro, OnePlus 13, Realme GT7 Pro and iQOO 13 included.
