This chipset is manufactured using a 5nm process and features an Adreno 660 GPU. The Snapdragon 875 also has improved cache and memory bandwidth.
According to rumors and leaks, the Cortex-X1 core’s peak performance is 23% higher than that of the Cortex-A78 core. The chipset also features the Snapdragon X60 5G modem, which supports the mmWave and sub-6 GHz bands. The same 5G modem has been used in the Apple iPhone 12 series.

It is reported that Qualcomm will hold the 2020 Snapdragon Technology Summit on December 1, where it is expected to unveil a new 5nm flagship chipset.
