Qualcomm has introduced a new naming scheme for its PC platform called the Snapdragon X series. This will be a big change since the chipmaker introduced the Snapdragon 8cx platform back in 2018. Take a look at what Qualcomm plans to do next.
Snapdragon X Elite Review after 2 months: Laptop Revolution!
The Snapdragon X series is a step forward in the direction of "revolutionizing next-generation PC experiences." The new PC platform series will aim to provide improved performance, AI, connectivity and battery life. It is said that 2024 will be the year of the PC industry and it remains to be seen what roadmap Qualcomm has planned for this.
Qualcomm will use its expertise in CPU, GPU and NPU architecture for the new computing platform. In addition, it will incorporate the custom Qualcomm Oryon processor (introduced last year), which will result in improved performance and energy efficiency. This will be clubbed with Qualcomm's NPU, which will make room for generative AI experiences. So expect to see the power of AI on this front as well.
Qualcomm is said to have chosen the Snapdragon X brand to differentiate its PC platform from other categories. The new visual design will be clearer and will be symbolic to celebrate the next step in computing.
