Xiaomi 15 Could Debut as the First Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Powered Smartphone

It is revealed that Xiaomi will debut the first Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4-powered smartphone in mid-October 2024. This could be the Xiaomi 15 and the Xiaomi 15 Pro. This matches the timeline of the Xiaomi 14 launch in China. The phones will most likely go global in Q1, 2025.

Yogesh Brar, another well-known tipster on X (formerly Twitter), previously confirmed that Xiaomi has the exclusive rights to debut the first Snapdragon 8 Gen 4-powered smartphone. The alleged AnTuTu V10 scores for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset went live online recently. The listing reveals that the chipset scored 17,69,083 points, which is a lower score as compared to the current flagship chipset.

The lower scores are due to the heavy CPU throttling since it is an engineering sample of the SoC. The benchmarking platform has revealed that Qualcomm will equip the chipset with two high-performance and six-efficiency cores. The high-performance cores could have a clock speed range of 3.6GHz and 4.0GHz.

The upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is tipped to score 2,700 points in single-core and 10,000 points in multi-core tests. Xiaomi is tipped to equip the Xiaomi 15 with a 6.36-inch flat AMOLED display housing an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. The vanilla device is also tipped to sport a new 50MP primary camera.
