ΟThe flagships released this year by various Smartphone manufacturers, and powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC, are sold at a higher price than last year's flagships, and one of the factors contributing to these increases is the price of the chipset.

But if you thought that the prices that will have the next flagships of the various manufacturers, but also Xiaomi, will be similar to this year's prices… .. just forget it.

New information published today in IT Home, They are also preparing us for new price increases from next year.

So according to IT Home, an order document signed by Xiaomi to Qualcomm, revealed to us that the price of the upcoming platform Snapdragon 875 Mobile is about $ 250. This price includes both the processor and the modem Snapdragon X60 5G, and as the same source states, Xiaomi is discussing the price that will be the future flagships of the company.

To have a measure of comparison, the Snapdragon 865 is currently shipped to manufacturers, with prices ranging from $ 150 to $ 160. That means the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 875 SoC will be around at 100$ more expensive than this year SD 865.

This new Qualcomm chipset is said to likely have a processor Super-Core Cortex-X1 which will have against 30% better performance by Cortex-A77. he Super-Core will be combined with three cores Cortex-A78 and four low energy cores in array + + 1 3 4.

Xiaomi as always tries to offer some of the cheapest Smartphones through its Brand Redmi, but although it will try to do the same in its next flagships, it is considered almost certain that prices will increase by 100$ in relation to the current prices of the devices that "wear" the Snapdragon 865 SoC.

Of course, this is not a problem that only Xiaomi, but all the manufacturers that will equip their flagships with Qualcomm SD 875 SoC.
