Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 is officially coming early


There have recently been rumors about the first devices powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset launching in late September, and that the SoC itself would be unveiled earlier than its predecessor, which was announced last October.

Today during its Computex presentation, Qualcomm confirmed that its next Snapdragon Summit is taking place from September 23 to September 25. The Snapdragon Summit is the yearly event during which the company unveils its latest and greatest Snapdragon chip, so it’s settled.

With this in mind, expect the Chinese flagship smartphones using it to all be announced in late September to early October for the domestic market. Since the timeline has shifted, we wouldn’t be surprised if their global launches took place earlier than they used to as well.

This will leave Samsung in a rather awkward position as it’s rumored to launch its next-gen foldables in early July – only three months before the chipset they will use will get one-upped.
