摩托罗拉(Motorola)将摩托罗拉边缘X30手机推广为“最快的速度,最高的分辨率智能手机相机,最大的音频和最粗体的显示屏”。那么,有什么技术可以找到索赔?TechInsights快速拆除回答了其中一些问题。

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1

As expected, we found the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC SM8450, which is reportedly fabbed in Samsung’s 4LPE process – which would make this the world's first 4nm process node in the market.

Last year, we examined theQualcomm Snapdragon 888 in the Xiaomi Mi 11 – the 5nm, which put Qualcomm in direct competition with the Apple A14 and the Exynos 2100.

We have several reports in progress on the latest-generation Snapdragon. Watch this space for more information on our analysis.

Design Wins in the motorola edge X30

Some of the notable design wins we have identified in this phone so far include:

  • 新的Qualcomm Qet7100
  • a new PM8450
  • a new Qualcomm Wi-Fi 6E SoC WCN6856 – we expect that this will contain the same die as the WCN6850/6851, and are and working to confirm

The partially annotated board shots accompanying this article provide additional design win information:

我们没有看到什么摩托罗拉边缘X30

到目前为止,我们认为在这款手机中可能看到的一些事情我们尚未找到。我们已经订购了手机的不同版本,因此我们将继续挖掘,但似乎确实有一些值得注意的位移,并且可能我们期望看到的一些技术将被拒之门外。

  • In the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, we had expected to find a new RF Transceiver, but so far we have found the same SDR735 that was previously used in Snapdragon 4/7/8 series phones.
  • We have not yet found Qualcomm’s QPM6679, which is said to include Qualcomm’s new generation ultraBAW filter technologies.
  • Notably, we have not (yet?) seen Skyworks, Avago, or Qorvo parts in this phone. It could be that we have not yet identified them in the model of phone that we have, or it could be that they have not been included. We are working to confirm these details as well.

It seems the Motorola edge+ X30 has a few more tricks up its sleeve. We will continue our analysis of this phone and its components.
