Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3

  • Qualcomm has confirmed to Android Authority that its new Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 isn’t really new.
  • The company says the chipset is an ‘enhanced version’ of 2021’s Snapdragon 695.
  • This comes after we noticed numerous similarities between the two processors.

Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 last week, and all the evidence suggested that this was effectively a slightly improved Snapdragon 695. Now, the chipmaker has indeed confirmed that it isn’t a new design.

The Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 features a part number that’s almost identical to the aging Snapdragon 695 (SM6375-AC versus SM6375) as well as the same 6nm TSMC manufacturing process, but the similarities don’t end here. The two chipsets share the same CPU setup, GPU, modem, camera capabilities, and wireless connectivity suite.
