The Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G SoC is the chipset that will power flagship Android smartphones in 2021. The SoC was announced earlier in December through an online event and it brings some remarkable improvements in the already popular Snapdragon platform. Qualcomm promised a 25 per cent improvement in CPU performance and a whopping 35 per cent improvement in GPU performance. To drive home that point, Qualcomm today released benchmark scores of the Snapdragon 888 5G running on a reference device powered by the latest flagship hardware. And safe to say, Android flagships are going to push way ahead in the coming year, maybe even past Apple’s A14 Bionic in some of the synthetic benchmark scores, if the benchmark numbers shared by Qualcomm are anything to go by.
