By now it’s safe to assume that the majority of flagship smartphones we will be seeing in 2018 will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 845, but in case you wanted an actual list of such devices, a list posted onto Weibo (via GSMArena) has revealed all the devices in question, although it probably goes without saying that you should take it with a grain of salt.
Starting in the month of February, it claims that the first Snapdragon 845 device will be the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+, followed by the LG G7 and G7 Plus. Then it claims that in April, the Xiaomi Mi 7 will launch with the Snapdragon 845 n tow, and then the HTC U12 in May.
Other devices mentioned in the list also includes Sony in which they claim that Sony’s flagship will launch in June, followed by the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 in September, the LG G40, the Google Pixel 3 in October, and the HTC U12+, and so on. We can’t say for sure if this list is accurate, but given that these are all flagships, it wouldn’t be too hard to take an educated guess that they would most likely be packing Qualcomm’s latest technology.
In any case take it with a grain of salt, but CES and MWC 2018 are around the corner and we expect that there should be some announcements made then.
