Expect the new Snapdragon 778G platform to arrive in upcoming high-tier smartphones from Honor, iQOO, Motorola, OPPO, Realme, and Xiaomi in the second quarter of 2021.

A vulnerability has been discovered by Check Point Research involving the Qualcomm Modem Interface (QMI) and it could allow an attacker to listen in and record active calls and steal call and SMS history.

The Lite comes equipped with a 1.19-inch AMOLED screen with 390 x 390 resolution and a 400mAh battery. The watch runs Wear OS on top of a Snapdragon Wear 3100 processor and features onboard GPS, 8GB of storage, and 5 ATM water resistance.

A patent troll named Red Rock is suing both Apple and Qualcomm for allegedly infringing on a patent related to 5G. Red Rock accuses the firms of willfully using its patent which means damages could be tripled.

After 15 years working for Nokia and HMD Global, Juho Sarvikas will be joining Qualcomm in a key position.

It appears that the phone was previously underutilizing the Snapdragon 765G chipset, which explains why some users found it to be slower than comparable devices.

Qualcomm has been dethroned as the number one smartphone chip supplier in the world, after last year's numbers came out. MediaTek, a Taiwanese fabless semiconductor company, managed to ship out 351.8 million units during the whole of 2020, overtaking the king of Snapdragon for the first time ever.

The Federal Trade Commission decided not to petition the U.S. Supreme Court to review the FTC v. Qualcomm case that charged Qualcomm with several charges of anticompetitive behavior.

Qualcomm's most recent chipset is a love letter to mid-range smartphones. The Snapdragon 780G 5G promises to bring many premium features, typically limited to top-tier phones, to mid-range handsets.

The device will likely be faster than gaming-centric smartphones, thanks to its thicker dimensions.

Qualcomm apparently doesn't have enough components to meet demand for its chips.

Qualcomm is also said to be working on a stripped-down variant of the Snapdragon 888.

Qualcomm, the biggest supplier of mobile microprocessors worldе, is seriously struggling to keep up with an increasingly high demand for its chips now that the COVID-induced drop in demand has begun righting itself. Biden recently announced he would seek $37 billion in funding for chip manufacturers in the US, including Qualcomm, but it could take a long time before its effect reaches smartphone sellers and end consumers.

Leaked internal document suggests the chip will exceed expectations.

It could be the first phone to offer 18GB of RAM.

The K40 Pro and Pro Plus are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and come with a 120Hz screen.

A rumor calls for Qualcomm to return to TSMC to manufacture the Snapdragon chip due for release in 2022. Samsung has produced the last two Snapdragon chipsets, the 865 and the 888.

The Motorola Edge S, which might be known outside China as the Motorola G100, was benchmarked by Geekbench. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 870 chipset, and is equipped with a 5000mAh battery and 5G support.

Despite losing Huawei's business, contract foundry TSMC is dealing with heavy demand for 5nm chips. A semiconductor shortage in the Auto industry is also helping TSMC.

Qualcomm is objecting with regulators in various countries about NVIDIA's $40 billion bid to purchase ARM. The latter is known for its CPU cores and is also the third largest supplier of graphic chips.
