Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor was announced earlier this year and so far it has been found on a couple of smartphones. Now the chip maker is reportedly working on a processor with model number SM7475. The chipset’s position the Snapdragon family remains unclear however, it is expected to be the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 as per leakster Roland Quandt.
The SM7475 could also be labelled as Snapdragon 7+ Gen 1 as we have seen the case with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 which is an enhanced version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The upcoming CPU is said to have a tri-cluster design with one prime, three gold, and four silver cores. The prime core will run at 2.4GHz whereas the gold is said to peak at roughly the same frequency. The silver core will be clocked at 1.8GHz. This seems to be exactly the same as Snapdragon 7 Gen 1.
There aren’t any hardware details about the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 SoC. If it is the new chipset, we can expect new core designs. This means Cortex A715 for Prime and Gold cores and A510 for Silver cores compared to A710 and A510 on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1.
The Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 could come with a small performance bump but a solid improvement in efficiency.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit is taking place next month and the chipmaker is expected to announce the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 at the event. Thus we can expect some details about the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 that time as well.
