Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 5G SoC for budget phones
The Snapdragon 480, the first system-on-chip in the 4-series with 5G support, was launched by Qualcomm. Qualcomm is taking a significant move today to allow widespread 5G adoption. With 5G, you can get Snapdragon-based high-end and mid-range phones, but up until now, budget models have proved elusive.
“Qualcomm Technologies continues to accelerate 5G commercialization globally to make 5G smartphones more accessible, especially as people worldwide continue to connect remotely,” said Kedar Kondap, vice president, product management, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “The Snapdragon 480 5G Mobile Platform will exceed OEM’s and consumer’s expectations in delivering high- and mid-tier features at an affordable price.”
