What is necessary is allowing Qualcomm’s partners to offer more affordable smartphones with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a feat that cannot be accomplished with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.

A tipster pointed out that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4’s unit price could be $240, making it 20 percent more expensive than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Based on these figures, it is next to impossible for brands to release ‘price to performance’ handsets that can be had for between $500 and $600 without making a boatload of
