One of the key features of the device will be the chipset. It will be powered byQualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 Pluschipset, making it one of the first devices to feature the chipset right along with theAsusROG Phone 3, which is also launching on the same day.
Snapdragon 865 Plus
TheSnapdragon 865 Plusis an enhanced version of the top-end Snapdragon 865 - a chipset we’ve seen in many top-end phones this year.
The prime core is clocked at 3.09GHz, three gold cores at 2.42GHz, and four silver cores clocking at 1.8GHz. It is coupled with Adreno 650 GPU.
What does that mean for you? Essentially, it boasts faster CPU, GPU, and Wi-Fi speeds compared to the standard Snapdragon 865 so this should be slightly quicker at loading apps and games.
