Qualcomm’s Best Mobile Processor in 2021 The Snapdragon 888, now gets its twin brother with some improvement on the specs sheet. Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Specification sheet is as powerful as its predecessor with improvement in CPU and AI. This is major launched in the ongoing MWC 2021 event. In this article, we will find out Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Antutu Score, Geekbench Score, Specification, and key features.
Also, check its Ranking in the Best mobile processor list 2021.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Specs sheet gets old CPU with boosted clock speed. ARM Cortex-X1 Price core CPU is boosted from 2.85GHz to 3.0GHz. Other than that all specs are the same like other CPU core, GPU, RAM Support.
But Qualcomm upgraded the 6th generation Qualcomm AI Engine. So, the new AI Engine can perform 32 TOPS compare to 26 Tops. That is around 20 percent more powerful.
Other than this all specs are the same like previously Qualcomm has done. Smartphone manufacturer like Motorola, Vivo, Xiaomi, and Asus and Honor has already said that it’ll be using the new chip in its upcoming Magic 3 flagship.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Antutu Score is 870987. It is a little higher than Snapdragon 888 Antutu Score due to the CPU core and improved AI Engine.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Geekbench Score for Single-Core is 1286 and Multi-Core Score is 3839
Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Launched Date is 28 June 2021
Please check Snapdragon 888 Plus Specs below
yes, Snapdragon 888 Plus is better than Snapdragon 888
Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus Antutu Score is 797868.
For now, Motorola, Vivo, Xiaomi, and Asus, and Honor have already said that it’ll be using the new chip in its upcoming Magic 3 flagship.
it has a new 3.0Ghz ARM Cortex X1 Prime core, Powerful Adreno 660 GPU, Powerful 6th gen AI engine.
is, Snapdragon 888 Plus is one of the best processors in 2021.
basically, both processors are the same except the boosted ARM Cortex X1 Price core clocked speed and Ai engine TOPS speed.
