As we approach the end of the year, the anticipations for what we expect from the next flagship Snapdragon chipset are running high. Will it be based on a 5nm process? Will it be able to beat Apple’s new A14 Bionic chipset? Well, Qualcomm has decided to add fuel to the fire by confirming that the rumored Snapdragon 875 will be announced on December 1st.

As per previous leaks, Snapdragon 875 will be based on a 5nm fabrication process and Samsung is said to have bagged the order for manufacturing the chipset. The company is said to have kicked off production back in June earlier this year.

As for which phone maker will debut the first Snapdragon 875-powered smartphone, we usually see Samsung’s S-series take the lead in this department. However, Chinese phone makers, such as Realme and Xiaomi, have already teased that they are working on new 5nm chipset-powered flagship smartphones.
