The Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 and Dimensity 9500 chipsets are expected to offer significant performance upgrades over their predecessors.

Meanwhile, the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 could have two Cortex-X930 prime cores. It could also include six Cortex-A730 performance cores. This configuration offers better performance and efficiency ¹.
Launch Timeline
Qualcomm usually unveils its flagship chipset in October. However, the tipster claims that manufacturers might unveil new smartphones by September. The first smartphones with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 or Dimensity 9500 are expected to launch in October. Xiaomi and Realme are likely to be among the first to unveil new flagship models.
It’s worth noting that the Chinese tipster has a good track record of leaking accurate information about upcoming flagship smartphones. However, it’s still important to take these claims with a grain of salt. We will likely hear more details about these chips in the coming weeks and months. This will be ahead of their anticipated debut.
