Qualcomm plans to release the Snapdragon 8s Gen 5 processor alongside the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 at the September 23 summit. The new chip carries the designation number SM8845 and uses TSMC's advanced 3nm N3P manufacturing process. Phone makers will have a cheaper option that still delivers strong performance for their devices. The company builds the processor with custom Oryon cores for better speed.

Digital Chat Station shared details about the Snapdragon 8s Gen 5 on Weibo. The first smartphone featuring this processor should arrive before 2026 begins. The chip will match the performance of current Snapdragon 8 Elite processors. Qualcomm borrows various technologies and graphics architectures from the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 for this mid-range option.

The 3nm manufacturing process helps the processor run more efficiently and deliver better performance without using extra power. Phone companies can save money compared to buying the premium Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 chips. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 5 appears to be a trimmed version of the flagship processor with some features removed. Companies can make better profits on phones powered by this less expensive chip option.
