The last seven days have been marked by Qualcomm’s annual summit in Hawaii, where the company announced its new flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. Virtually every major manufacturer has confirmed they will launch a phone with the SoC, but the latest reports have revealed that Samsung is getting a special release more frequently.

The platform itself promises a 35% performance boost with 40% higher efficiency. The main core of the CPU, the Kryo Prime, runs at almost 3.2GHz, so we have four cores at 2.8GHz and three for efficiency at 2.0GHz. Qualcomm also co-developed ray tracing with Oppo and we are about to see incredibly realistic games in the near future as well.

Leaks have revealed that the anticipated Samsung Galaxy A54 smartphone will retain the triple camera setup on the back, but there’s no island this time – only the lenses will protrude from the flat back.

The Realme 10 Pro series came with 108MP cameras, with the Pro+ version bringing a lovely AMOLED with curved sides. Both the Plus and its regular Pro sibling have a 5,000mAh battery and will ship with Android 13-based Realme UI 4.0.
