On January 13, Motorola posted a warm-up poster on its Weibo, saying, “Recently, chip is powerful, please pay attention.” The chip will be one of the core selling points of this new Motorola phone. It is worth noting that this new phone may not be equipped with a Snapdragon 888 but a new Snapdragon 800 series chip.
Earlier, it was reported that Qualcomm will launch a new 800 series flagship chip, which will be launched by Motorola Edge S. This new chip could be the previously revealed chip codenamed Shima. The CPU of this chip is composed of one 2.70GHz super core, three 2.36GHz cores, and four 1.80GHz cores. It integrated Adreno 660 GPU and supports LPDDR5 memory and UFS 3.1 storage. In addition, this chip uses A78+A55 architecture and is based on Samsung’s 5nm process technology.
Before, the general manager of Lenovo’s China mobile phone business department posted a photo on Weibo, saying that the new phone and the Snapdragon 8XX are coming. It is worth noting that this Weibo was published by Motorola Edge S. This also implies that the new phone’s name is Edge S.
On the other hand, Motorola can be the first to release a mobile phone equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series chip, which means that the brand still has a high position in the global smartphone industry. Motorola may launch other products in the future because Motorola has announced that it will release a mobile phone equipped with Snapdragon 888.
