Snapdragon 8 Elite FEATURES: Putting Qualcomm’s BIG claims to the TEST!

1. What you saw was a basic software demo… Qualcomm shows the feature capabilities of the hardware not the end results. Software makers like Adobe or others, take these capabilities and create software features that will perform as you expect in your favorite software.

2. Frankly, it's all AI bullshit and lack of practical innovation.

3. been using Redmagic 10 Pro for 2 weeks…..mainly gaming on monster hunter NOW.
   battery life is awesome…..gaming performance is a stuttery mess compared to my snapdragon 8 gen3 experience(Redmagic 9 pro)…..not sure if it's a game issue or a CPU issue or a phone issue.

4. Qualcomm always come with big claims and end up failing. Think about the Snapdragon X elite for instance! Not at all the "M-chip killer" it was promised to be

5. Any info on the heat issues? It sounds like the processors can run really hot

6. I like too se test on Winlator emulator for AAA games !!!

7. Thats great and all , about the AI. Until the people that actually make the software want to charge monthly for it.

8. Not seeing anything on demo worthy of the "elite" name…

9. Stopped watching the video after around the 3rd or 4th mention of the word AI. Im giving it a down vote just purely out of that.

10. The problem on android gaming is game library, no matter what your powerful devices as long as the game is not update it still sucks. What is the most demanding gpu on android game? Genshin, star rail, honkai impact that even mid range device can run that. Why dont you bring console games to android with that such powerful chipset? Such re4 remake, god of war, assasins creed, etc.

11. This is just a marketing ad for Snapdragon, just so you guys know.
    Android Authority has signed a contract with Snapdragon and so do all others who show it off as something really cool.
    It is just another upgrade to smartphones and that's it.
    The AI you can get from websites. The gaming in 4k you can get from the PC.

12. Wait for the leading brand to implement the said feature.. i think the demo phone is just a teaser for the leading brand to perfect.. the 8 elite is too powerful not polish the said feature..

13. gonna be honest, i don't care about ANY of this stuff lol.

    i care about performance, efficiency and battery life from an SOC. the phone manufacturer will handle the superfluous AI features

14. "THE BATTLE OVER BRITAIN "BY PROF WALTER VEITH POWERFUL POWERFUL WATCH TRUTH ALWAYS WINS ❤

15. AI DRAGON AI 8 AI AILITE AI AI AI
    SO AI😂

16. First thing I expected is comparison in real games again iPhone 16

17. Back in the day performance differences between chips was important because of some of them being disappointing notably Samsung made chips. But for the last couple of years performance has peaked and I don't think many of us will ever want for anything more. So I am more interested in efficiency. Are these performance upgrades meaning the same task can be done with less wattage? We will wait to see from real reviews rather than marketing spiel from QUALCOMM.

18. lol gaming on a phone just play it on pc or buy an ipad cause apps on ios are more optimized it's always gonna run better than an android 😅

19. Yes, overhyped like every year. Qualcomm comes out claiming gigantic gains, only to be the same overheating mess year after year. They think that by using "AI" in front of every feature that existed before AI makes it sound cooler.

20. i could give a crap about the ai,i just care about boosted performance and boosted efficiency

21. The power efficiency on 8 elite preety good improvement as it as uses less power to run apps as many china reviewers has already review it

22. A great leap forward, but I'm not abandoning my S23 Ultra for this. Whatever is about in 3-5 years will feel like a real step up, then!

23. To be fair, you should have talked about the chip itself. The AI demos are just potential use cases that are better implemented or executed by their customers.

24. Who cares about CPU, GPU is that matters I want Dimenisty 9400 with Nvidia

25. Not a single developer will give a shit to this and to me it looks like how or miss. Instead of refining the processor or to polish the existing feature that works made more sense. It just feels like mah.

26. Patiently waiting real world use tests. Dont care too much about the NPU improvements for AI, more interested in how the new chip handles thermals and efficiency. We have peaked in terms of performance already.

27. I GUARANTEE that if the demo in point number one had been nothing but 1080p with no upscaling but you were told it was, you wouldn't have had a clue about it!

28. Qualcomms AI is much simpler form of Machine Learning algorithm.. which is a really good thing.. less complex processing

29. …….

30. Upscaling to 4K = "the lighting looks really good", bro are you good? Maybe talk about textures instead, since lighting effects really doesn't scale with resolution

31. No real people care about AI, as long as it has good efficiency then it is good.

32. waiting for Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 , because Snapdragon 8 Elite now old model, SD now working on Snapdragon 8 Elite 2.

33. AI up scaling coming to mobile is awesome and glad to see Qualcomm is tying to get developers to utilize it. AI up scaling,frame generation,& frame interpolation are what I’m most excited by when it comes to AI in smartphones. Wish we got to see a demo showcasing the increasing of a games frame rate using those technologies.

34. Too much work is going into AI features, which most people won't even use
    Android got Gemini live for free and its really cool but I barely use it

35. Not a single demo is applicable to me or my needs. I am glad they are improving their chips, but I'll keep my current device.

36. Qualcomm is not responsible from software at all. They just created some demos to prove it is promising. At least i would be surprised if snapdragon would offer such softwares.

37. AI, AI, AI…
