Qualcomm just announced its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip for Android phones. From new AI tools to gaming upgrades, it looks like a big deal.

Qualcomm has revealed its new top-end mobile processor that will power the next wave of Android flagships in 2024. But this time around, the focus is not just on raw performance and camera enhancements. Instead, Qualcomm is turning its attention to generative AI and bringing it to smartphone users with an on-device approach. If you’ve played with products like ChatGPT and DALL.E image generator, well, prepare for such tricks to be available natively on your next Android phone.

Related Qualcomm is also taking some inspiration from the PC gaming ecosystem, thanks to a new frame generation algorithm that can upscale the fps count from 60 to 120. It’s a massive leap, but we’ll have to in actual tests how the games look. Unreal Engine 5’s Lumen system is here to do what hardware-accelerated ray tracing does in PC and console games, which is producing more accurate and realistic shadows and reflections in games.

Generative AI fill is also a part of the package, allowing users to expand the canvas of their original photos by using AI to add more elements that weren’t originally in the camera’s frame courtesy of predictive pixel generation. All those AI tricks are made possible by deploying specialized modules , support for multiple-modal AI models like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and a dedicated AI stack.

For video recording enthusiasts, Qualcomm’s latest flagship brings support for 8K HDR and 4K 120fps recording. Slo-mo video capture at 960fps is also on the table, alongside 12-layer multimedia segmentation for more control over editing and an enhanced bokeh detailing system in videos. The most impressive of all, however, is night mode video capture at 4K 60fps.
