Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. today announces the Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 Mobile Platform - designed to make 5G more accessible and reliable. This new platform is another example of how Qualcomm is committed to engineering human progress, pioneering the global transition from 4G to 5G to empower communities and industries alike.

"The Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 Mobile Platform is a significant leap forward in making 5G technology more accessible, so more people can navigate the world at 5G speeds," said Chris Patrick, senior vice president and general manager of mobile handsets, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

5G with...1gbps download speed. Not mentioned upload speed. Thanks. No. This speed is 1/3 of maximum of 4G advanced pro and equal of ordinary 4G advanced.

I’m happy that ARM is becoming a proper alternative to X64, but sucks that its Qualcomm leading the way for the PC segment.

This company is worse that intel and Ngreedia combined.

ARM really doesnt compete with in the PC segment. It does but on a very very small scale.

I only wish that phone companies can bring back the micro SD card slot.
Make microSDcardslot great again.

I had 3 bars of 5G the other day and barely got dial-up speeds. Most of the 5G we are on is barely an improvement at all and then only in ideal situations, but boy does your battery life suffer on 5G.

This is not a problem as long as 3, 4 and 5G are working in parallel in my country. Actually, my phone doesn't support 5G and it's not a problem for me at all. 5G is still under construction and only half of the minimum number of base stations required for normal coverage have been installed.
