"Two changes the game", "Opportunity doubled", "Dual 8 Elites" - it's pretty obvious what's going on here. The company hasn't confirmed the names yet, but at this rate, that's probably coming soon too.
Anyway, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro will be unveiled on September 22 at the Snapdragon Summit. A leaked AnTuTu 11 benchmark run for the Pro variant recently surfaced, revealing that it managed to score 4,835,412 points. Both upcoming SoCs are expected to be fabbed on a 2nm process.
