On September 15, Qualcomm made an official announcement stating that during the 2025 Snapdragon Summit, it will reveal the fifth-generation Snapdragon 8 Elite. This platform represents the fifth iteration within the Snapdragon 8 series. It incorporates Qualcomm's in-house-developed Oryon v2 CPU architecture and leverages TSMC's third-generation 3nm manufacturing process. As a result, it brings about a substantial improvement in both performance and energy efficiency. There's a possibility that the Xiaomi 17 series could be the first to feature this cutting-edge technology upon its debut.
