Following the launch of the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor last year, which was targeted at mid-range devices, and the simultaneous release of the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 processor to meet the needs of the entry-level market, Qualcomm has once again announced an update to the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor to enhance the application functions of entry-level mobile phone products.
The Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor also integrates Qualcomm's 5G connectivity technology, which is supported globally, and supports multi-tasking, faster Wi-Fi connection technology, and more advanced photography performance.
Qualcomm also explained that by switching to a 4nm process design, the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor has reduced power consumption, thereby extending device battery life. It also supports Quick Charge 4+ fast charging technology, allowing the device battery to be charged to 15% in just 50 minutes.
The processor's main core clock has been increased to 2.2GHz, boosting computing performance by approximately 10%. The display supports a 120Hz refresh rate at Full HD+ resolution. Camera features include EIS (electronic image stabilization) and artificial intelligence-enhanced night and low-light photography. Advanced autofocus technology also allows for clear capture of moving objects. Video recording also supports Multi-Camera Time Filtering for superior noise reduction.
In addition, with the assistance of artificial intelligence technology, the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor can also effectively remove background noise during calls. Through the Snapdragon X61 5G networking communication chip and Wi-Fi 5 networking function, the processor can respond to fast and stable networking performance.
Major mobile phone brands including Redmi and vivo will adopt the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor, and related products will be available as early as the second half of this year.
