| Qualcomm gets serious about gaming on Snapdragon Brings desktop-level features to Snapdragon platform During the second day of its annual Snapdragon technology summit in Hawaii, Qualcomm touched a topic of mobile gaming, and it appears that the company is quite serious about tapping this big and lucrative market, bringing desktop-level features to the Snapdragon platform and offering mobile gamers performance, quality and unique set of features. Snapdragon Elite Gaming and lucrative mobile gaming market Qualcomm already made a decent foothold in the mobile gaming segment with Snapdragon 855 and 855+, as these were the first SoCs to come with the Snapdragon Elite Gaming badge. The Snapdragon Elite Gaming is pretty much a set of hardware and software features optimized for gaming and meant to provide "smooth interactions, superior performance, blazing-fast response, incredible audio, cinema-quality graphics, and more". Some of these features include support for Vulkan 1.1 API, higher Adreno GPU and Kryo CPU performance, rendering improvements, network improvements, audio improvements, as well as specific game engine and general game improvements, like loading times, Q-sync for syncing display frame rate with fps, Game Jank Reducer for stuttering improvements, and more. With Snapdragon 855 and 855+, Qualcomm created a new category of smartphones, those specifically aimed at mobile gaming, including the ASUS ROG Phone II, Nubia Red Magic 3, Black Shark 2, Razer Phone 2, as well as a plethora of smartphones that might not be specifically designed for gaming, but have the same level of performance as these are based on the same SoC as gaming-oriented smartphones. According to Qualcomm's own report, 80 percent of gamers in China want specialized gaming phones and are ready to pay for it. https://fudzilla.com/news/gaming/499...-on-snapdragon |
