Qualcomm to release a 5G SoC on its budget "Snapdragon 600" series

The ever-popular semiconductor company, Qualcomm, will release an SoC based on its Snapdragon 600 series, and this chipset has something special in particular, that this will be the first chipset powered by 5G

According to Weibo/Digital Chat Station, this Snapdragon 6xx processor will have eight cores in a 2+6 core arrangement. Two of these cores, the performance cores, have a clock speed of 2.2GHz while the power-efficiency cores have a clock speed of 1.8GHz. The chipset has a model number "SM6350". 

The chipset may also run on Cortex A-76 performance cores and the efficiency cores may be powered with Cortex A-55.

These are speculations but considering other processors of the same lineup, such as Snapdragon 675 and the Snapdragon 665 run at a similar clock speed, it may be possible that these cores will be the one given to the budget SoC.
