The Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G, 662 and 460 enable 4G connectivity, deliver Wi-Fi 6 and integrate Bluetooth 5.1 with advanced audio via the Qualcomm FastConnect 6-series subsystems.

The mobile platforms also support Dual-Frequency (L1 and L5) GNSS to improve location positioning accuracy and robustness. Qualcomm says the three SoC solutions are also the first to support Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC).

Kedar Kondap, vice president, product management, Qualcomm Technologies, commented, “Today’s smartphone users want fast, seamless connectivity, advanced features and long-lasting battery life. This expansion of our 4G lineup enables our partners to offer sophisticated solutions that meet global demand and enable a remarkable gaming experience across multiple tiers and price segments.”

The Snapdragon 720G reimagines extraordinary gaming and entertainment experiences with select Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite Gaming features, striking capture capabilities, and intelligent performance. The Snapdragon 662 brings camera and AI capabilities to the 6-series, and features the new Qualcomm Spectra 340T, which supports new triple camera configurations and smooth switching between them.

The third SoC, the Snapdragon 460, offers significant boosts in connectivity, AI and camera improvements. It also features performance CPU cores and an updated GPU architecture that translates into up to 70% and 60% increase in performance, respectively.

Devices based on Snapdragon 720G are expected to be commercially available in Q1 2020 and devices based on Snapdragon 662 and 460 are expected to be commercially available by the end of the year.
