Oppo’s next Find X flagship smartphone will be among the first to be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It is expected to deliver improvements in video, gaming and connectivity, besides better performance with AI-related tasks. The chipset also supports Wi-Fi 7.
Oppo has demonstrated the breakthroughs achieved in its collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies and Google to implement Google Vertex AI Neural Architecture Search on a smartphone for the first time.
Pete Lau, senior vice-president and chief product officer at Oppo, said: “Drawing on Oppo’s extensive experience in mobile graphics and AI, and the powerful capabilities of the new flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, Oppo and Qualcomm Technologies have delivered a breakthrough in mobile ray tracing technology and brought Google NAS to smartphone for the first time.”
Running on a device powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, with multiple ray tracing effects turned on, top mobile games can run at a steady 60fps while providing lifelike soft shadows and reflections for the highest gaming visual quality.
The list of partners for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 includes Motorola, Oppo and Asus’ Republic of Gamers brand but it remains to be seen whether Samsung will opt in or use its own Exynos chipset in models sold outside the US.
