The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 has surfaced on Geekbench with an impressive single-core score of 3,831, potentially rivaling Apple's A19 Pro chip. This upcoming Qualcomm SoC is expected to outperform desktop chips in single-core performance. The chip features two performance cores and six efficiency cores, with the performance cores reaching speeds of up to 4.74 GHz. The new SoC is manufactured using TSMC's 3-nm N3P node. The inclusion of Arm's Scalable Vector Instructions and Scalable Matrix Instructions in the chip should provide a significant speed boost for compatible applications.
