The Snapdragon 735 will be a 7nm chipset like the Snapdragon 855 which means power efficiency will be greater than the 8nm Snapdragon 730 duo. The sdm735 will be an octa-core processor with a 1 + 1 + 6 CPU cluster. It will have one unspecified Kryo 400 series core clocked at 2.9GHz paired with another Kryo 400 series clocked at 2.4GHz and six Kryo 400 series clocked at 1.8GHz.

The mobile platform will have an Adreno 620 GPU clocked at 750MHz with support for QHD (3360 X 1440) displays with a wide color gamut and HDR10/HDR10+. The SoC will also support up to 16GB of LPDDR4X RAM.

The Snapdragon 735 will have a Spectra 350 ISP just like the Snapdragon 730 that supports up to 32MP 30fps ZSL. There is also a new NPU220 for AI tasks clocked at 1GHz.

The processor will not only be a 7nm chipset like the Snapdragon 855 but also have an integrated 5G modem which means mid-range 5G phones are on the way. It will also support UFS 2.1, eMMC 5.1, and USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type C.
