Qualcomm’s AI ambitions are now trickling into more affordable territory.
As always, Qualcomm’s “s” segment is dedicated to the affordable smartphone market.
On-machine AI is the marketing gimmick, predictably.
But it’s an understandable gimmick.
However, Qualcomm does advertise two AI features that may immediately benefit mid-range and budget smartphone buyers.
The first is on-equipment multi-language translation and transcription (no need for the cloud).
And the second is noise cancelation for phone and video calls.
We’ll see the first Snapdragon 7s Gen 3-equipped smartphones in late 2024 or early 2025.
