Qualcomm RF front end too

CES 2019 press conferences are firing in series and this is traditionally one of the business weeks in the year. Qualcomm took the time to announce quite a few Automotive breakthroughs and the fact that they power 30+ 5G designs expected in 2019.

2019 is the year when 5G starts and most Android-based smartphone manufacturers have a 5G plan and want to launch in 2019. Depending on the market, the US, Australia, China, parts of Europe will get 5G in the course of 2019 and of course, phones with 5G capability are needed.

Pete Lancia, a VP of communications at Qualcomm announced that there are 30+ design wins for Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 mobile platform with X50 5G modem. This is quite a number and even Samsung committed back in December that it plans to use Qualcomm 855 + X50 combo for its early 5G devices. Pete mentioned that these are predominantly smartphones meaning that there will be some other 855 + X50 powered devices outside of phones.
