Qualcomm is bringing AI to mid-range phones

Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, which brings generative AI to mid-range phones. This will be available later this month as it is already used in phones by Honor, Vivo and other mid-range manufacturers.

A few weeks ago, the company introduced its new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, which powers generative AI for larger phones.

Qualcomm has argued that generating AI across all devices is a key feature of 2024 phones equipped with modern Snapdragon processors.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 supports generative AI features such as: b. Use powerful flow to create new images based on clues and expand images beyond their original boundaries.

AI generated on the device has advantages over cloud-based solutions because it does not require sending requests or receiving responses from the server, and therefore has lower response times.

Creating cross-device AI also takes into account personal information such as behavior patterns as it does not transmit data from the device, works in areas where there is no cell signal, and also helps protect privacy and security by managing tasks locally.

The Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor also features other improvements over its predecessor. In addition to spatial audio capabilities with head tracking, it also includes an advanced neural processing unit to handle generative AI tasks.

Compared with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 processor, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 is 15% faster, 20% more power efficient, and supports fast charging from 0% to 50% when the battery is empty in five minutes.

The Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor still uses the Kyro processor that the company has already used in major phone processors, but performance and efficiency could improve next year when the company replaces it with the new Oryon processor in the Snapdragon X Elite processor.

“Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 components deliver breakthrough advancements that advance AI across devices,” Qualcomm says, which will accelerate the deployment of generative AI.
