Qualcomm has already demonstrated its strength in the hardware field, so its next goal is to build a system ecosystem of “seamless experience”, so it launched Snapdragon Seamless.

“Snapdragon Seamless breaks down the barriers between devices and operating systems and is a truly ‘user-first’ cross-device solution,” said Dino Bekis, vice president and general manager of the Wearable Devices and Mixed-Signal Solutions Business at Qualcomm Technologies.

It was previously reported that companies including Microsoft, Android, Xiaomi, Asus, Honor, Lenovo and OPPO are cooperating with Qualcomm Technologies to use Snapdragon Seamless to enable multi-terminal experiences. The technology will be released globally as early as this year. landing on the terminal platform.

The US Supreme Court has reserved the lower court’s ruling against Apple after it similarly rejected Apple’s appeal in June of a ruling challenging two other Qualcomm patent-related cases.

Qualcomm sued Apple in San Diego federal court, arguing that its iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch infringed its mobile technology patents. The case is part of a wider global dispute between the two tech giants.

Apple is challenging the validity of the patents at issue in the case before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board of the US Patent and Trademark Office. The two companies have largely stopped fighting in 2019 and have signed a multi-billion dollar agreement for Apple to continue using Qualcomm baseband chips in its iPhones. The agreement includes Apple’s licensing of thousands of Qualcomm patents but allows the Patent Board’s proceedings to continue.

The Board upheld these Qualcomm patents in 2020, and Apple then appealed to the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on the grounds that Qualcomm could use it again after the license expired (as early as 2025), and the Federal Circuit dismissed the case for lack of standing, finding that the risk of Apple being sued again was speculative.

Qualcomm again argued that Apple had not shown a concrete injury to justify the appeal, as it had in the “substantially the same” case dismissed by the High Court.

Unlike the 8+ Gen 1 and 7 Gen 1, Qualcomm Snapdragon did not share the details of these processors. But, the available promotion images for these chips tell a bit about their capabilities. The manufacturer also promises that the 6 Gen 1 and 4 Gen 1 processors will both feature upgrades in performance as against the current processors that the company has to offer in the budget performance range.

Both processors are 5G enabled, but the 6 gen 1 makes use of the 4nm fabrication processor, whereas the 4 Gen 1 is a 6nm chip. The 6 Gen 1 processor aims to turn heads as it offers support for 200MP shots, so we might start seeing some mid-range budget devices with a large sensor. As for the 4 Gen 1 processor, it offers support for a maximum of 108MP on its main camera sensor.

The more powerful 6 Gen 1 processor leans more towards the gaming community as it brings some Qualcomm core gaming features to bear. Some of the core gaming features are a 35% improvement to the Adreno GPU, a 40% improvement in Kryo CPU, and so much more. But the 4 Gen 1 processor only offers support for 120Hz, Qualcomm Game Quick Touch, and variable shading rates.

Some devices that will make use of these processors are already in the pipeline. One such device is the iQOO Z6 Lite which is to use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 SoC and will launch in a few weeks. Other devices will follow through after the coming iQOO launch.

Snapdragon Summit is usually held in December, but in 2022, it will be a three-day event scheduled for November 15-17.

Here is the official Snapdragon Summit invitation from Qualcomm.

At Snapdragon Summit, we will see the debut of the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Of course, more chips could be announced at the same time as that.

While Qualcomm didn’t specifically mention why it moved the Snapdragon Summit 2022 to November, it may have something to do with the Chinese smartphone market, which typically sees a big spike in phone sales during the Chinese New Year. As a result, many Chinese companies are hoping to launch their new top-of-the-line devices before the Chinese New Year – and an early announcement of the chips powering them could help shorten lead times.

At MWC22, Lenovo announced its first laptop powered processor from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 8cx Gen3 quickly drew attention to itself and the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s. The Lenovo ThinkPad X13s is special and the first of its kind. Qualcomm went into the manufacturing of laptop processors, the Snapdragon 8cx Gen3 processor is one of its first laptop processors and Lenovo is the first company to use it on a laptop.

So many people express their concern about how powerful the device will be and its pricing. Well, we have all that information including its Geekbench score for you here in this article.

Lenovo ThinkPad X13s Geekbench Score And Price

The Snapdragon powered Lenovo ThinkPad has a Geekbench single-core score of 1110 and a multicore score of 5736. This score makes it a direct competitor to most Intel powered laptops using the Core i5 1235U. Aside from the Qualcomm processor, the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s has a couple of features that make it worth the consideration.

This machine is a fanless device that has 32GB worth of memory to perform more tasks. A pretty impressive yet quiet laptop (due to its lack of fans), it makes up for this lack of fans with a liquid cooling mechanism. It also assures users of an advanced level of protection with the Secured-Core PC from Windows 11.

This is a 13.3 inches laptop running Windows 11 on a 32GB memory with a 3.00GHz base frequency. Equipped with rapid charge alongside a 28hrs worth of battery life (video playback) and support for a secure 5G connection, this might be the ideal laptop for business owners and students. The Lenovo ThinkPad X13s will go on sale in May with a starting price of, 6963 yuan (1100 USD).
