During this year we have seen several new smartphones and with the new year we are wondering what kind of features we will find on the upcoming devices. Furthermore we are all curious to know what kind of SoC there will be in flagship models. Many devices, including the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Xiaomi Mi 7 have already been rumoured to include Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 845 SoC.


Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 has been the most dominant mobile chip on the market. This SoC can be found inside all the latest Samsung's Galaxy series including the S8 Plus and Note 8, as well as the Pixel 2 and the first Razer smartphone. A few days ago, the company revealed its new flagship successor and the Xiaomi Mi 7 will be one of the first to house the processor.

According to the first information, the Xiaomi Mi 7 is set to launch early 2018 alongside with the Samsung Galaxy S9 and LG G7. Samsung, however, could be available once again with two different SoCs as the previous lineup. With the Galaxy S8 Samsung introduced two models, one available with their own Exynos SoC and another based on Snapdragon SoC. Beside that, Qualcomm hasn't shared any information on the upcoming Snapdragon 845 processor.
