No official word has been given yet regarding the naming conventions or launch dates of these processors. However, it is expected that they will be launched towards the end of the year.

Prior to the Snapdragon 8 Elite, Qualcomm had released the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The company's continued focus on innovation and performance suggests that these upcoming chips will not disappoint.

The launch of these chips is eagerly awaited, with anticipation high for the potential for improved performance in the Android market. As more details emerge, we'll keep you updated on this exciting development.
