Samsung to release new Snapdragon powered device
We know that Samsung usually doesn't like putting competitors' chipsets into their own devices, but recently we've seen the Galaxy A9 that sported a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset, and some leaks suggest that we may see another Snapdragon powered device. The chipset that will most probably power the next Samsung's upper mid-range device is the Snapdragon 710. Because this chipset is a bit more expensive, we can expect the new phone to be priced somewhere between the upcoming S10 and the previously released A9 (2018).
We still don't know what exactly we will see in the new phone, but we can expect glass and aluminum body, Infinity Display and the new chipset. We don't know yet about memory configurations, cameras and battery, but we're sure Samsung will make an excellent upper mid-ranger. Also, we can expect this device to be announced in December this year as it will probably be released in January, alongside the new and improved Galaxy A8.
