7 Interesting Snapdragon 860 Facts

• Using 7nm fabrication

Unlike the Snapdragon 888 which uses a 5nm fabrication, the Snapdragon 860 still uses the same 7nm fabrication as its younger brother Snapdragon 855/855+, or its older siblings Snapdragon 865/865+ and 870.

Apart from that, we are actually still amazed, that now the Snapdragon 800 series processor is no longer specifically for high-end class cellphones, but has targeted the mid-range class.

• Supports RAM up to 16GB

Do you know what this means? This means more or less that the new series of smartphones that will later use this processor, will be able to use a maximum of 16GB of RAM.

Imagine a mid-range HP with 16GB of RAM? Bottlenecks? Maybe, but it's more convincing if later there are smartphone brands that really embed a maximum of 16GB of RAM for this processor, so we can know how the original performance is.

But it seems that if you put 16GB of RAM, the price is unlikely to be below 5 million, unless Xiaomi wants to repeat its habit of 'crushing the market price'! Maybe, who knows.

• GPU Adreno 640

Not upgrading the GPU sector, the Snapdragon 860 processor now still uses the Adreno 640 graphics processor (GPU), the same as its younger brother Snapdragon 855/855+.

Same fate as this processor, Snapdragon 870 also still uses the same GPU as Snapdragon 865/865+, namely Adreno 650.

Adreno 640 is not a 'riddle' GPU, this GPU can crush the toughest games today, like Genshin Impact or mainstream FPS games like Free Fire, PUBG, etc. with right alignment settings.

• First used on the Poco X3 Pro

It's no longer a secret, until the time this article was published, no smartphone brand has announced that their next HP series will use the Snapdragon 860 processor made by Qualcomm, apart from the Poco X3 Pro from Xiaomi.

Maybe many of the competing smartphone brands are unsure about competing with Xiaomi in this class, because Xiaomi has made the price of the Poco X3 Pro not like a flagship cellphone in general, but like a flagship cellphone at an affordable price.

• Predicted to be a mid-range HP champion

In fact, the emergence of the Poco X3 Pro is a breath of fresh air, for us 'hooray' lovers who want HP to speed up the flagship class at the price of a mid-range HP class.

Hopefully in the future many smartphone brands will use this processor, and sell it at a rational price. Although 'rational' we mean more 'cheap' here.

Hope to follow in Xiaomi's footsteps, that's the point!
