Jakarta (ANTARA) – The launch of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chip is expected to be delayed until the end of this year.
The Phone Arena page quoted a tipster called Digital Chat Station, reporting that this delay was due to the recent COVID-19 lockdown in China.
Zhengzhou City, nicknamed iPhone City, was temporarily closed due to an increase in COVID-19 cases. Zhengzou is home to the Foxconn factory, Apple’s largest manufacturer.
Qualcomm originally planned to launch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chip this month. The phone, which is powered by a chip with 4 nanometer processing technology, is expected to launch in June.
