Qualcomm Snapdragon 678, this is the mid-range processor of 2021

If only a few days ago it was possible to meet Snapdragon 888 , the flagship of the Chinese manufacturer to power the best high-end phones in the new year, now it was the turn of the mid-range models and the processor presented during this week has been the Qualcomm Snapdragon 678 .

Qualcomm Snapdragon 678 is a slightly improved version of the current Snapdragon 675, including a large majority of coincidences in its specifications and even the construction technology in an 11-nanometer process, so according to the brand, it is a chipset with an extra of the 10% both at the CPU and CPU level.

Snapdragon 678 Specifications Summary

Basically the model in question works on an eight-core Kryo 460 base running at a maximum speed of 2.2 GHz and accompanied by an Adreno 612 GPU . Compared to Snapdragon 675, it stays with the same configuration at a lower speed of 2.0 Ghz and complemented by the Adreno 615 GPU.

In the compatibility section, the latest industry standards are maintained, such as terminals with support for Quick Charge 4+ fast charging, WiFi 5 connectivity, Bluetooth 5.0 and NFC chips, as well as USB type C 3.1 ports , memories in LPDDR4X format and UFS 2.1 internal storage.

Without yet reaching 5G connectivity, the same Snapdragon X12 modem is still present that allows downloads in 4G of up to 600 Mbps and uploads in the same network of up to 150 Mbps , while for its cameras there is support for a total of three rear sensors of 16 megapixels or a single 25 megapixel with native photographic blur effect and slow motion video recording of up to 240 fps with HD resolution or 120 fps in Full HD resolution .

In conclusion, it is a small improvement for inexpensive terminals that is probably not enough for the expectations of many users. Clearly Qualcomm aims to include several of its latest technologies in its 700 line , as has already happened during the second half of 2020 with models optimized for gaming activities.
