And laptops are just the beginning of the road for the new Oryon CPU, which will become the primary Qualcomm Arm CPU for all devices, from phones to cars, boasting industry-leading performance and efficiency.Historically, the battle for x86 has been a two-horse race: Intel and AMD. More recently, the Arm-based Qualcomm Snapdragon platform in the Microsoft Surface line has offered an attractive alternative, with built-in 5G, leadership AI performance and exceptional battery life.
After acquiring Nuvia in January 2021, Qualcomm quickly set its teams to work to apply the power-efficient Nuvia cores into what has become Oryon, and the move seems to have paid off quite nicely. With this move, Qualcomm has reset the performance and power efficiency bar for Windows and put Apple and other Arm designers on notice: this tech will soon come to mobile, cars, XR headsets and other devices, providing performance and multiple days of battery life.
Qualcomm initially showed Stable Diffusion running a 1B parameter model on-device earlier this year, with a 15-second response time. Mr. Anon says that the image generation application can handle that task in less than a second. ‘The Author Qualcomm also introduced the next generation of mobile Snapdragon CPUs, the Snapdragon 8 gen 3, with 30% faster CPU and 98% better AI performance with the updated NPU. This new mobile CPU is also the first to support image enlargement with Tetras.ai with Truepic authenticity.For the first time, one of Qualcomm’s OEMs launched a new phone simultaneously with the new Snapdragon chip. Xiaomi 14 was established with the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
