In fact, the well-known leaker would be even more precise and affirms – through a tweet of a few lines – that the SoC is in the production phase as early as June. As proof of this, Quandt also attaches the page on Geekbench of a mysterious Xiaomi device; the latter would be equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 855.

The codename of the SoC would be SDM855 and would indicate an octa-core module with a base rate of 1.90 GHz; the score in single-core settles on 1784 points while in multi-core would be 6359. To accompany the processor we find 6GB of RAM while the operating system is Android 8.1 Oreo.
Regarding the mysterious Xiaomi brand device, no further details, nor a code/code name is reported. Quandt himself appears skeptical about it and does not seem convinced of either the performance or the specifications of the SoC. However, still remain a few months to the official debut of the Snapdragon 855 and remains to be seen what will be the first company to launch a device with the latest Qualcomm premium solution.
Huawei’s Kirin 980 is expected to be unveiled at the IFA exhibition in Germany on August 31. If nothing unexpected, Huawei 20 will start. The Smartphone equipped with the Snapdragon 855 processor will be released at the end of the year. The first model is the Samsung S10 and Xiaomi Mi Mix 3.
According to the leaks, Snapdragon 855 is built on a 7-nm process technology, will receive new Kryo cores, the next generation Adreno GPU and 5G-modem and will boast improved performance and energy efficiency.
