Xiaomi is rumored to be working on a new smartphone that will use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset developed by Qualcomm. This new chipset features an architecture developed entirely by Qualcomm itself and promises significant performance improvements. The new chipset is expected to be included in Xiaomi’s upcoming Xiaomi 15 series.
According to rumors, mass production of the Xiaomi 15 series will start in September. Xiaomi usually launches its flagship smartphones in China late in the last quarter of the year. This suggests that the Xiaomi 15 series could be launched in November or December. However, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset is rumored to be unveiled earlier than expected this year, which means that the Xiaomi 15 series could also meet users at an early date.
