So does the ELITE branding mean elite in all aspects? (thermal performance, battery etc). There seems to almost always be a downside to more raw power just for benchmark's sake
It's nice that it's faster than the previous generation. But what about power consumption and thermal output? Are the tests all measured at the same power load?
45% faster AND 45% more efficient. 😇 no need to worry. same battery just way more powerful. and if you dont like it then turn on powersaving mode to throttle the performance.
Yeah, sometimes I wonder if we'll ever have anything substancial on Android that'll finally take proper advantage of all this power. It's almost 2025 and we still don't have anything close to actual console games like they're having on the fruit side, even if the games themselves are running in 720p, but they're still there and playable.
apple paid money to those gaming studios no one in the android world wants to do that also those console games barely run at 720p low 30fps get a handheld if you are really serious about portable gaming
The main issues are the temperature, all consoles, and pcs. They have good quality fans with proper cooling design, while with a tiny phone, it's quite difficult to install one, also the market aswell many won't buy paid games on mobile that's why developers usually make the games free with in game microtransactions so it's a waste of money to develop or optimize console level games to mobile currently, until a mobile device is capable of running games at smooth fps without thermal issues we won't be seeing games that level just yet but soon
Well at least having the games on your ecosystem future proofs you for when the chips catch up. I'm sure Res evil 4 will look great on a future iphone 17 or 18, and if they prove the concept and publishers decide to release more day and date games on iOS they could take a chunk out of consoles for sure.
*Razr+* *2025* */* *Snapdragon* *8* *Elite* I’m worried if I drop my Razr 5G again on concrete like I did the other day on a parking lot, I may lose it for good. Was very lucky the drop didn’t damage any of the screens only leaving a ding at the top left. The Razr+ is an obvious replacement if my Razr 5G ever breaks. I’ve been reading great stuff about the Snapdragon Gen 8 Elite. It might be the most hyped up flagship SoC ever by Qualcomm. It’s on the 3nm process and breaks the 4 GHz barrier. I saw improvements of up to 30%-45% when we normally see 15%-20% gains yearly. This seems more hyped up than the Snapdragon 800 in 2013 and 835 in 2017. Both were fantastic SoCs, btw. The 801 in 2014 was one of three variants of the 800. Samsung may go Exynos next year with their foldables while the S25 series will get first dibs with the Gen 8 Elite (formerly 8 Gen 4) with Qualcomm’s new Oryon CPU. I’m thinking Samsung will use their own Exynos because Qualcomm charges a lot when OEMs uses their flagship SoCs. This is why Pixels don’t go up in price like the Flip 6 did using 8 Gen 3. Is the 8 Elite so good that Qualcomm changed the name to Elite after being referred as Gen 4 prior? The cost of using the 8 Elite? $190, a 20% increase from the 8 Gen 3. Motorola recently announced 5 year OS updates for their Edge 50 Neo with a Dimensity 7300, a chip inferior to the Snapdragon 8S Gen 3. The latest Razr+ 2024 is probably still only on the 3 year OS update plan. So I suggest to wait for the Razr+ 2025 to get the 5 years and the newer 8 Elite chip if Motorola plans to use it. Motorola has never used a current flagship for any of their Razrs except the 2022 which stayed in China. The Razr 2019 has the 710. Razr 5G has the 765G. The Razr+ 2023 has the 8+ Gen 1 which was a 2022 flagship SoC that the Flip 4 used 9 months earlier. The Razr+ 2024 uses the 8S Gen 3 which is underclocked compared to the 8 Gen 3 and barely an improvement over the efficient Gen 2 found on the S23 Ultra from last year. Actually, the 8 Gen 2 has higher teraflops than the 8S Gen 3 and can download and upload faster on data speeds. And Gen 2 has higher clock speeds on their GPU. Will Motorola finally not cheap out and use the Snapdragon 8 Elite for their Razr+ 2025 or will they still use the 8 (no S) Gen 3 from this year? Samsung usually has first dibs on Qualcomm chips. And if Moto does use this 8 Elite, will the price go up like what happened to the Flip 6? wccftech.com/qualcomm-snapdragon-8-elite-press-image-leaked-showing-various-details/amp/ Finally a significant leap in performance that we haven’t seen since going from 820/821 to 835 or the 600 that the HTC One M7 and Galaxy S4 have to the 800 that the LG G2 and Nexus 5 have and all released in the same year of 2013. Add the possible 5 year OS updates and you can use a Razr+ 2025 for 12 years if you wanted to. That’s 5 years of OS updates + 7 years when an app might start losing support if stuck on an older OS. I can still use my Uber Driver app but minimum now is 8.1. Eventually, a phone still on Oreo from 2017 will lose app support. Don’t get the Razr+ 2024 and wait it out. Snapdragon 8 Elite is worth waiting for plus the longer OS updates of an extra 2-3 years.
The issue here is snapdragon even though gave huge gains in performance on chip level the software optimisation is another story for the phones they use snapdragon.Apple and google will always have better advantage as they have hardware to software integrations and deep OS level optimisation for years to fine tune.

Yeah, but raw numbers mean nothing. I mean, just look at how smooth Pixels are and how they do certain things more efficient and faster. Sure, they export an 8K video a bit slower, but who even does that? This is just an excuse for Snapdragon and all OEMs which will use the chip to grab more money from customers. 💀
It doesn't matter what they add in the smartphone. Its still thermally limited so much that its not even running half the power it can do. Even older Snapdragon 865 is far faster than Snapdragon Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen 3 when you unlock the power limits via ROOT and add custom cooling by tearing it down. Smartphone performance is literally meaningless, unless manufacturers will start using something like FRORE Solid State Cooling Systems.
Watching this video on pixel 9 pro XL, as a non gamer the benchmark test don't bother me at all, sure having some more raw power would be nice for image and video editing.
I wonder If this new processor will be in some tablet in the future, like a new redesign of samsung tablets like the samsung tab s10 ultra or something like that, because it wouldn't be bad at all to add that performance to compete with the ipads
The google tensor is the main reason i wont buy the pixel. Half the performance for the same price. And its somehow supposed to get 7 years of updates?
Looks like a power hog space heater... The 9400 is way superior... I am saying this as a snapdragon fan who was planning to buy the one plus 13... The fact they didn't even mention CPU power consumption itself is enough proof it's really bad except on power unlimited benchmark scores
But why even call it Snapdragon *8* Elite, why not name it Snapdragon*9* Elite. That would give it whole new look and people(I am talking about who are not into these stuffs much)) can easily understand that it's better than all older chips rather than comparing with older chips while buying.

Still using my oneplus 6t with snapdragon 845… still faster than my iphone15plus …
Looks like a power hog space heater... The 9400 is way superior... I am saying this as a snapdragon fan who was planning to buy the one plus 13... The fact they didn't even mention CPU power consumption itself is enough proof it's really bad except on power unlimited benchmark scores
But why even call it Snapdragon *8* Elite, why not name it Snapdragon*9* Elite. That would give it whole new look and people(I am talking about who are not into these stuffs much)) can easily understand that it's better than all older chips rather than comparing with older chips while buying.
Because it's not that much of a generational leap
You know geekbench is gonna change how they test the cpu because Qualcomm is now leading.lol
I know this is an android specific channel, but I have to say those Apple scores for geekbench are too low when looking at iOS 18.1.
If this chip becomes like the 8 gen 1 with too much heating, benchmarks are nothing.
Only phone worth using 8 elite is Red Magic 10s pro
Sadly, it still can't beat the Immortalis GPU of Dimensity 9400.
Cry. It beat it EZ PEEEEEZ
@@madaraainna it doesn't
Can i just get Fortnite on my phone?
All this power on a phone and nothing to use it on beside a benchmark.
My s7 back in the day played fortnite like shit but it did play it.
With all the new tech today im sure it will play wonderfully.
10bit 4:2:2 Hardware video Encoder/Decoder stll missing for Pro Filmmaking :(
Pro Filmmaking with a phone?maybe you mean amateurs like youtubers?
Should've called it Snapdragon Y or Z Elite
Aztec ruins 1440 Vulcan scores are low in 8 elite about 125 fps, Dimensity 9400 gpu scores 130 fps
134 fps
Yes that's cuzz dimensity 9400 has a better gpu than 8 elite
Wow so Qualcomm starts ita own core design........just like 6-7 years ago when it used Kryoccorea... whar a revolution
