Nio, the Chinese electric car maker, announced it is working on a smartphone last year and rumors suggest it will feature a flagship chip and 100W fast charging. Now a benchmark scorecard confirms the premium SoC and suggests that the phone itself is just around the corner.
Nio’s next phone was stopped by AnTuTu giving Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip a chance to flex its computational muscles. The chip was paired with 12GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage in the tested device.
Interestingly, the phone’s performance is below the average SD 8 Gen 2 in our database, which could mean that Nio still has some work to do on the software side. On the other hand, the phone has already obtained a Chinese MIIT license, so a release can’t be far off.
A rumor earlier this year hinted that the automaker is preparing a smartwatch to pair with your phone, and it will be a nice addition to the ecosystem if it can unlock your Nio car as well. Previously, Oppo, vivo and OnePlus phones could function as car keys.
