Qualcomm is working on three new mid-range mobile phone processors according to Android Headlines. These processors, identified by model numbers SM4635, SM6650, and SM7635, are expected to fall under the Snapdragon 4, 6, and 7 series respectively based on Qualcomm’s naming conventions.
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro will be the first smartphone to sport the SM7635 chipset
The code name for the SM4635 is “pitti,” while both SM6650 and SM7635 share the code name “volcano.” Earlier information from Roland Quandt in February suggests SM4635 is the Snapdragon 4 Gen 3. Back then, he mentioned the “Kalpeni” project testing a memory configuration of 6GB LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage for this chip. For reference, the previous generations of Snapdragon 4 series processors, the 4 Gen 1 and 4 Gen 2, used model numbers SM4375 and SM4450 respectively.
For the “volcano” processors, SM6650 and SM7635, rumors suggest Qualcomm might be following a similar strategy as with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 (SM6450) and 7s Gen 2 (SM7435). These two processors, codenamed “parrot,” shared similar specifications. Here, Android Headlines predicts that the SM7635 might not outperform the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 but will still offer significant improvements, strengthening Qualcomm’s position in the mid-range SoC market. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro is rumored to be one of the first devices equipped with this processor. While specific details about these processors remain unknown, we can expect more information to surface in the near future.
