According to German insider Roland Quandt, Qualcomm is now working not only on the flagship Snapdragon 875 (SM8350) chip, but also on the new top-end 700-series SoC.
We are talking about the Snapdragon 775 processor, which will be the successor to the Snapdragon 765G. The chipset comes with the model number SM7350 and the code name Cedros.
Their testing platform is high end: 12 GB LPDDR5 (!) RAM, 256GB UFS 3.1 storage, 120Hz screen. SM7350 seems closely related to SM8350, so 7-series is in for a rather massive upgrade, from what it looks like.

The novelty will be built on a 6-nanometer process technology, and will also receive a 40% faster CPU and 50% more powerful GPU than the Snapdragon 765G. The processor is also credited with supporting displays at 120 Hz, RAM up to 12 GB LPDDR5 and drives up to 256 GB UFS 3.1. Naturally, the novelty will receive a built-in 5G modem.
When the Snapdragon 775 will be announced – there is no official information. It will most likely be unveiled alongside the Snapdragon 875 at Qualcomm’s annual Snapdragon Tech Summit in December.
