Qualcomm officially unveiled its new 7-series Snapdragon processor, named the Snapdragon 750G 5G, codenamed SM7225, which is positioned in the mid-range. Specifications wise, the Snapdragon 750G is based on the 8nm process, with an eight-core CPU design consisting of two large A77 cores clocked at 2.2GHz and six 1.8GHz A55s, and an Adreno 619 integrated into the GPU.
From the specs, the processor appears to be a boosted version of the Snapdragon 690 but has improved performance over the Snapdragon 730G in both CPU and GPU. According to the official description, the Snapdragon 750G features a Kryo 570 CPU, which is a 20 percent improvement and 10 percent better graphics rendering performance than the Snapdragon 730G’s Kryo 470 compared to the 730G’s Adreno 618.
In terms of the theoretical numbers, the Snapdragon 750G has a slightly lower GPU than the Snapdragon 768G/765G Adreno 620. The baseband is also integrated with Snapdragon X52, supporting sub-6GHz band (4×4 100MHz carrier aggregation), millimeter-wave band (2×2 400MHz carrier aggregation), maximum download rate of 3.7Gbps, maximum upload rate of 1.6Gbps, and support for NSA/SA networking mode, TDD/FDD format, DSS dynamic spectrum sharing, global roaming, global multi-card while supporting 4G LTE Cat.24/22, maximum download and upload speeds of 1.2Gbps, 210Mbps.
With advanced features, Snapdragon 750G supports up to 120Hz refresh rate FHD+ display, 12GB LPDDR4X-2133 memory, support for QC4 + fast charging, built-in Spectra 355L ISP, support for up to 19.2 megapixels and 32 megapixels + 16 megapixels. The dual-camera supports 4K HDR video recording.
Other aspects of the chip include Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, AptX adaptive audio codec, GPS/Glonass/BeiDou/Galileo/QZSS/NavIC, and SBAS navigation support. Qualcomm announced that commercial devices powered by the Snapdragon 750G are expected to be available in late 2020.
