Performance Tier

Snapdragon 8s Gen 3: Flagship-class chip (2024), though slightly below the full 8 Gen 3.


Dimensity 7300: Mid-range chip (expected in 2024), successor to Dimensity 7050/7200.


CPU

8s Gen 3: 1x Cortex-X4 (prime), 4x Cortex-A720 (performance), 3x Cortex-A520 (efficiency) – very powerful.


7300: Likely 4x Cortex-A78 + 4x Cortex-A55 (typical mid-range) – weaker in both single- and multi-core.


GPU

8s Gen 3: Adreno (possibly 735 or similar) – excellent for gaming, supports ray tracing, HDR gaming.


7300: Mali-G610 or G57 – adequate for mid-range gaming, not competitive with Adreno in high-end titles.


AI & Features

8s Gen 3: Strong NPU (Qualcomm Hexagon), supports advanced generative AI, premium camera, and connectivity features.


7300: Basic to moderate AI features – aimed at efficiency and affordability.
