• The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 processor could be “significantly” more expensive than the already pricey 8 Elite.
• The next-generation chipset is said to be manufactured on an improved 3nm TSMC process and could see a performance boost of 20% or more.

The Snapdragon 8 Elite has just arrived, and it’s a big leap forward for smartphone processors. Nevertheless, it looks like we’ve now got some major leaks about the follow-up chipset.

Korean outlet KiPost reports (spotted via Jukanlosreve on X) that Qualcomm could “significantly” increase the price of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 processor next year. This comes after the Snapdragon 8 Elite was found to be 20-30% more expensive than its predecessor.
