The new Qualcomm Snapdragon platforms will finally catch up with Exynos. The company is preparing new SOC for smartwatches
Qualcomm seems to be finally ready to take on Samsung and release state-of-the-art single-chip smartwatch systems.
The company published a promotional video indicating the imminent release of such an SoC. There are no details there, but earlier there was information that the new solutions would be called Snapdragon Wear 5100 and 5100+.
They should be produced according to the 5 nm process technology, which will positively affect energy efficiency. In comparison, Samsung’s current Exynos W920 platform is manufactured at 5nm, while the Snapdragon Wear 4100 lineup uses the older 12nm process. That is, Qualcomm will immediately switch from 12 nm to 5 nm.
Also, earlier there were data on the configuration of the new SoCs: four Cortex-A53 cores and an Adreno 703 GPU.

Order Redmi Note 13 Pro and get Redmi Band 2 for free. The JD.com platform promises many bonuses to those who order the new Redmi among the first
The JD.com marketplace has rolled out an offer that is hard to refuse: the first buyers of Redmi Note 13 Pro are promised to receive a Redmi Band 2 fitness bracelet as a bonus. Considering that the smartphone itself will not be expensive, in addition to it, you can get a Redmi Band 2 for free for $20 – not bad at all.
Moreover, by paying just 1 yuan right now (that is, one day before the official premiere of the smartphone), you can count on a gift box worth $25. It includes wired Xiaomi headphones, a backpack and an electric toothbrush.
The only downside of JD.com’s offer is that there are only 2,000 of these gift sets. Considering how well the new Redmi Note sells at the start of sales, one might think that all these sets will be sorted out in a matter of seconds.
Apple’s upcoming FineWoven cases for the iPhone 15 lineup, which are supposed to replace leather cases, will match the new Apple Watch bands and will be available in ten different color options, according to Macrumors.
The new line of cases will be available in Black, Mulberry, Taupe, Evergreen, Pacific Blue, Wisteria, Antique White, Butter Yellow, Orange and Pink. The covers have rubberized edges that are slightly darker than the color of the back “woven” part of the cover.
In addition, Apple plans to release a new band in the same material with a magnetic closure with the Apple Watch Series 9. The magnetic band is expected to retail for $99.
Last week, insider DuanRui, who shared images of boxes with the name FineWoven Case, warned that the photos may not show original cases, but their mock-ups.
On Tuesday, September 12, Apple will hold a special event under the slogan “Thirst for Miracles”.
Google decided to show its new smartphone Pixel 8 Pro long before the announcement. His photo was found directly on the Google website.
Also, apparently, in the hands of the person in the photo you can see the smart watch Pixel Watch 2, although it’s more difficult to say here.
The Pixel 8 Pro looks exactly like we saw it in unofficial renderings. In addition, the photo shows one of the colors of the device.
It is expected that new items will be announced in October. Among other things, they will bring new AI features for video processing and at least five years of OS updates.
