Qualcomm’s launch of the Snapdragon X Elite and Snapdragon X Plus processors has been a major success, and the company isn’t slowing down. They’re already hard at work on the next generation of chips, with exciting updates recently shared.
During a shareholder meeting, Qualcomm revealed key details through a series of slides. According to the presentation, the second-generation Oryon processors will be geared specifically toward smartphones. Meanwhile, the third generation of Oryon chips, aimed at computers, is expected to debut by late 2025.
Qualcomm prepares a processor for cheaper equipment
This information comes from Windows sites, which uncovered the slides and shared all the latest details from Qualcomm.
Among the highlights of the presentation is news about Qualcomm’s third-generation chips for computers, which could potentially carry the Snapdragon name.
Additionally, Qualcomm hinted at a possible processor variant aimed at a more affordable price point—around $600. This variant might feature 6 cores and also fall under the Snapdragon branding.
This is exciting news for users interested in trying out Windows on ARM devices powered by Qualcomm chips but who may not want to invest heavily. While the $600 price point suggests this variant will have more modest features, it could still be a great entry point. Of course, we’ll have to wait for Qualcomm to release more details about this option.
