Though Qualcomm is pushing ahead with a 5G-first approach, even in the mid-range segment with the Snapdragon 765 series, the chipmaker has today announced a new chipset to cater to the needs of the 4G markets as well. Qualcomm has expanded on its gaming chipset lineup today with the launch of the Snapdragon 720G, which will bring enhanced gaming and connectivity features to the masses – especially in a market like India.
The connectivity is one of the key highlights of this gaming-centric chipset. It features the Snapdragon X15 LTE modem, which supports 3-carrier aggregation, 4×4 MIMO on two carriers and 256-QAM modulation for fast download speed up to 800 Mbps. The chipset is WiFi 6-ready, so you will get access to features such as 8×8 sounding, WPA3 security, and improved power efficiency. Snapdragon 720G supports Bluetooth 5.1, FastConnect 6200, and TrueWireless Stereo technologies.
