Many brands have already started testing smartphones with Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and we will start seeing models with the new processor in Q4 2024. But brands are not only limited to testing high-performance chips, they are also making design changes to their products. Oneplus pays attention to design this time on the new Oneplus 13.
Oneplus is testing the new Oneplus 13
Digital Chat Station reports that Oneplus is internally testing Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Prototype products and that the brand will switch to a different design language.
That’s because the prototype Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 device being tested is rumored to be missing the stainless steel hinge and circular Deco design in the top left corner. We don’t know how true this is. Of course, Oneplus could make some changes to the new Oneplus 13. We will see in the future whether the information is true or not.
Referring to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, the new chip is said to perform close to Apple’s M3 chip. It is curious what the 8 Gen 4 can do, which is promised to offer a better experience compared to the A16 SOC in the iPhone 16 series.
Although the Geekbench 6 results leaked a few weeks ago indicate a perfect year for the Android side, it will take time before we know everything. Other manufacturers like Xiaomi are also testing Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 smartphones. If the information is correct, users should look forward to new Android phones. Like all users, we are looking forward to Q4 2024.
