Information has leaked concerning Qualcomm‘s upcoming Snapdragon 818 SoC. Sources are telling tech publication STJSGadgets that it will feature a deca-core processor.

Keep in mind that there is no official statement on the alleged Snapdragon 818 SoC–just a tip from an insider at the company. It sounds like it’s in the very early stages of development, as it’s only on paper. Specs are most likely to change, and they probably will before the public hears an official announcement from the chipset manufacturer.

Here’s what they have in the planning stages so far:

This new SoC will be offering 4 Low Power Cores (Cortex A53 @ 1.2GHz), 2 Mid Power Cores (Cortex A53 @1.6GHz), and 4 High Power Cores (Cortex A72 @ 2.0GHz). As pictured above, it’s also said to support and handle the Adreno 532 GPU, LPDDR4 RAM, LTE-A Cat10 speeds, and is produced using the 20nm process.

While nothing is official yet, this sounds phenomenal on paper. It’ll be interesting to see how it’ll run in an actual device, and boy, are we looking forward to that.
