Pei’s strange language last week suggested that the Nothing Phone may not feature the most recent Qualcomm processor (2). The CEO said that the device will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 CPU while avoiding any model specifications.
Qualcomm has released three Snapdragon 8 System-on-Chip (SoC) variants: 8 Generation 1, 8 Plus Generation 1, and 8 Generation 2. If Qualcomm has an 8 Plus Gen 2 SoC on its plans, a fourth model might be released later this year.
Customers hoping for a truly flagship smartphone from Nothing should not anticipate the Phone to be powered by a 2023 CPU (2). The British startup is still in its infancy. 91mobiles quickly took a snapshot of a LinkedIn post in which Qualcomm’s Alex Katouzian verified the sort of processor Nothing would utilise in its next-generation phone.
