    What's the story

    Qualcomm has announced its latest top-tier Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. It promises a 30% boost in CPU performance, a 25% enhancement in GPU performance, and a 10% overall increase in energy efficiency.

    Numerous OEMs, including OnePlus, HONOR, iQOO, OPPO, Samsung, Realme, Redmi, Vivo, and Xiaomi, have announced plans to integrate the chip into their devices.

    Xiaomi's President William Lu revealed that the Xiaomi 14 series will be the first to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.

    Xiaomi 14 series will be the company's first flagship range to include LEICA's high-end Summilux lenses.

    The smartphones will ship with HyperOS, the company's new operating system, replacing MIUI.

    The standard Xiaomi 14 model is expected to feature a 120Hz, 6.44-inch C8 OLED display and a 4,600mAh battery. The Pro model could offer a 6.6-inch flat AMOLED panel with 2K resolution and a 4,860mAh battery.

    The launch is scheduled for October 26 in China.

    OnePlus was among the first to confirm that its 12 model will be equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.

    The OnePlus 12 could offer a 6.7-inch LTPO panel with 2K resolution. It will boast 2,600-nits of peak brightness, better than the latest flagships including Pixel 8 Pro (2,400-nits) and iPhone 15 Pro (2,000-nits).

    The handset could boast a 50MP Sony IMX966 primary sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide snapper, and a 64MP telephoto lens.

    The handset will offer innovative "Miracle Cooling" technology for heat dissipation and a 5,400mAh battery.

    iQOO

    iQOO 12

    iQOO is gearing up to launch the gaming-focused iQOO 12 series in China on November 7.

    The new series will comprise two models, iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro, and only the vanilla model is expected to launch in India.
