It stands to reason that devices powered by it could then be announced immediately afterwards &#8211; so if this pans out, expect the first Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ phones to be unveiled before the end of May and become available in June. This list includes Motorola, Lenovo, OnePlus and Xiaomi as first-phase customers. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/03\/snapdragon-8-gen-1-plus-launch-rumor\/-1200\/gsmarena_000.jpg\" alt=\"Qualcomm is allegedly announcing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ in May\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1&#8217;s model number is SM8450, and the 8 Gen 1+ will apparently be identified as SM8475, signifying that Qualcomm is definitely expecting it to be a noticeable step up compared to its sibling. <\/p>\n<p>New 7-series chips will also debut around the same time, and these, like the 8 Gen 1+, are already in smartphone makers&#8217; hands for testing and product launch preparations. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/onsitego.com\/blog\/exclusive-qualcomm-snapdragon-8-gen-1-4nm-announced-may-2022\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/03\/snapdragon-8-gen-1-plus-launch-rumor\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/qualcomm_is_allegedly_announcing_the_snapdragon_8_gen_1_in_may-news-53710.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Qualcomm is allegedly announcing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ in May Ever since the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset was announced, rumors have been flying about a mythical &#8220;+&#8221; version, which would be made using TSMC&#8217;s 4nm node, instead of Samsung&#8217;s &#8211; and that fueled a lot of speculation about this Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr.gagadget.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
