Default The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 doesn’t exist, so why is it on this phone box?

  • Realme has sent the GT 7 Pro smartphone to reviewers, and the phone’s packaging still contains the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 name.
  • Qualcomm’s latest chip is called the Snapdragon 8 Elite, but this processor was initially expected to be called the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
  • A Realme representative said that Qualcomm was late in confirming the name change.

Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 8 Elite high-end smartphone processor last week, and it represents another change in the company’s naming convention. We were expecting it to be called the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, following last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and it looks like at least one Android phone maker had the same expectation.

We recently received a Realme GT 7 Pro review unit, and the phone box lists a “Snapdragon 8 Gen 4” processor instead of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. Check out our picture below.
