The Snapdragon 888 is the latest proposal from Qualcomm’s highest range, a processor destined to be the one that life to a large number of top-of-the-range smartphones and flagships from various manufacturers. Recently announced, the first smartphone to use the S 888 will be the Xiaomi Mi 11.

However, his reign could end soon if the rumors that suggest that during the second half of the newly released year 2021 we will see the arrival of the plus version, the Snapdragon 872 + or Snapdragon 888 Plus. According to this source, the maximum frequency of the Snapdragon 888 is 840 MHz to prevent manufacturers from overclocking, a practice we saw, for example, in the ASUS Rog Phone 1 with the Snapdragon 845 up in laps, and until the arrival of the Plus will not increase this figure.

The Snapdragon 888 Plus will arrive during the second semester of 2021

It wouldn’t be weird if t Take into account recent releases from Qualcomm, such as with e l Snapdragon 865 Plus that we were able to test on the ASUS Zenfone 7 Pro or the ROG Phone 3 . On that occasion, the frequency improvement was around 10 % in CPU and also in the Adreno GPU, so we may see a similar increase in the MHz of both elements of the Snapdragon 888.
