Qualcomm has expanded its system circuit repertoire today with the new Snapdragon 870 model. The novelty is positioned in the company’s collection between the recent Snapdragon 888 flagship district and last year’s Snapdragon 865 + flagship district. The novelty is largely based on the 865 + model and is said to respond to requests from equipment manufacturers. Strong kinship is also indicated by SM 8250 – AC model number – in 865 it is SM 8250 and 865 + in SM 8250 – AB

The properties of the seven – nanometer process 870 are very close to last year ‘s 865 models. The circuit includes eight Kryo 585 processor cores, the most powerful of which now reaches a maximum clock speed of 3.2 GHz. The graphics processor is the same Adreno 650 and the 5G connections are implemented with a separate X 55 modem circuit. WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 support is provided by the FastConnect 6800 subsystem used in the Snapdragon 865 base model.

According to Qualcomm, the novelty circuit will be used in future top models from Motorola, OnePlus, Oppo and Xiaom. The first phones using the circuit will be released during the first quarter.
