That bet paid off big time, with around 14% of all smartphones shipped today equipped with these processors. The Samsung Galaxy Star (2013) featured a single-core Spreadtrum processor. The brand followed it up by releasing multiple iterations of the Tiger chipset at various price points (nothing above mid-range, of course.) This saw massive adoption, not only by big smartphone manufacturers, but the “Shopee-special” tablet brands from China that could now compete without much compromise. To this day, the T618 is still used as the processor of choice in retro gaming simulators for its consistent performance. In developing markets like SEA, Africa, and Latin America, UNISOC’s presence drives digitalization by powering lower-cost smartphones accessible to just about anyone. From a small team in Shanghai trying to solve a 3G connection issue, a struggling company building “trash bin” chipsets, to now a global giant powering around 14% of the world’s pockets with 6nm AI processors…. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 also includes an 18-bit triple image signal processor (ISP), which supports up to 320MP camera sensors and 4K60fps HDR video recording. These new chipsets will bring more performance and power efficiency, dual camera capabilities, and dual 4G VoLTE SIM capabilities, to the rising mid-range smartphone market.
