Qualcomm’s next chip may come in two confusing flavors

TL;DR

• Qualcomm is rumored to launch its next flagship chip, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, in two tiers: Standard and Pro.
• The Pro version may offer faster LPDDR6 RAM, higher GPU clocks, and stronger AI performance, while the Standard could dial things back for affordability.
• This naming split could help shoppers pick based on needs, but also risks confusing buyers who assume all “Gen 6” phones are equal.
