The PlayStation 5 Pro brings considerable visual and performance improvements in several titles, including Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 remake, Demon's Souls, and others. In the tests conducted by Brazil Pixel, the latest two entries in the CAPCOM survival horror series powered by the RE Engine show considerable performance improvements. Resident Evil Village, for example, runs at locked 120 frames per second in HFR without ray tracing at 1080p resolution, which is quite impressive to see on a console in a relatively recent game. The Resident Evil 4 remake, on the other hand, doesn't reach the same locked 120 […]

A previously leaked specifications sheet of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 revealed that Qualcomm will launch two versions of its upcoming flagship chipset, with both of them sporting the designation numbers ‘SM8750’ and ‘SM8750P.’ While the letter ‘P’ is likely for the performance variant, one tipster notes that this version will not feature an integrated 5G modem and may be found in tablets. Assuming that you have forgotten, this is a strategy that Qualcomm followed in the past, where its clients would have to purchase a standalone 5G modem for a premium. Last time Qualcomm followed a Snapdragon 8 Gen […]

The Snapdragon X Elite and Snapdragon X Plus have made quite the statement ever since Qualcomm officially announced both chipsets in April this year. After all, the company finally has worthy competitors in the ARM notebook space that can take on Apple’s M-series, but there is still one obstacle that the San Diego firm has yet to scale that could become the ‘make or break’ factor for the company to cement its position in this market and that is pricing. During Qualcomm’s Q3 earnings call, CEO Christiano Amon announced that in 2025, customers can purchase Snapdragon X Plus and Snapdragon X […]
The Galaxy Tab S10+ and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra will reportedly enter mass production in August, with Samsung expected to use MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300+ for the first time in its flagship tablet family. As Qualcomm continues to raise its chipset prices, the Korean giant has to seek alternatives to reduce its component cost or continue bearing reduced profit margins on each sale. As it so happens, one report states that by teaming up with MediaTek, Samsung will gain increased bargaining power over Qualcomm, maybe to the extent that the latter provides its Snapdragon shipments at a lower price. Samsung’s 18 […]
Qualcomm Snapdragon X CPUs & the first "AI PC" laptops were all the hype a few weeks back but it looks like actual adoption isn't as great, just like the actual performance which has been a mixed bag so far. With A 0.3% Share In PassMark Since Launch, Qualcomm's Snapdragon X CPUs Might Look In A Dire Situation Qualcomm's Snapdragon X lineup, which was expected to shake things up in the AI PC market, hasn't had the consumer response it might have anticipated. Back when the CPUs were initially announced, Qualcomm's CEO, Cristiano Amon, claimed that ARM-based CPUs are expected […]
Transsion is currently the fourth-biggest smartphone maker in the world, but you can be forgiven if you do not know about the name because the Chinese firm operates under a banner of other brands, such as Infinix, with these smartphones targeting the lower-end segment. The company has also yet to use a Snapdragon SoC in its devices, but it has still found itself in a legal skirmish with Qualcomm, who is reportedly going after Transsion for violating not one but four non-essential patents. Claiming licensing fees from Transsion could be Qualcomm’s primary objective As reported by ip fray’s post on LinkedIn […]

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is said to be unveiled in October this year, with a company executive hinting that it will be more expensive than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 due to developing those custom Oryon cores. However, the high price of the upcoming SoC is not entirely Qualcomm’s fault, as the San Diego firm’s decision to exclusively employ TSMC’s 3nm ‘N3E’ process is also a contributing factor, as mass producing such wafers is not cheap. This would be one reason why the latest report states that the chipset maker is pursuing a dual-sourcing strategy for the Snapdragon 8 […]
