Qualcomm’s 4nm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 smartphone processor launched

Qualcomm officially launched the 4nm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor. This new 4nm chipset will power mid-range smartphones. Compared to the 4 Gen 1, this new product features a Qualcomm Kryo CPU with a peak speed of 2.2GHz, a significant 10% performance boost.

In addition, the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor is capable of supporting a 120FPS FHD+ display. However, this second-generation chip has a dual 12-bit ISP compared to the triple 12-bit ISP in the first generation. Thanks to the 4nm process technology, the 4 Gen 2 promises better power efficiency.

The Adreno GPU is not as powerful as the one in the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1, as quoted by Qualcomm. However, it gets an upgrade to Snapdragon X61 5G Modem-RF System compared to Snapdragon X51 5G modem offering downlink speeds up to 2.5 Gbps and has Qualcomm Wi-Fi 5 for fast and strong Wi-Fi connectivity.
