MAUI, the United States, Oct. 21 (Xinhua) -- U.S. leading chip manufacturer Qualcomm on Monday unveiled its first Snapdragon Mobile Platform featuring the world's fastest mobile CPU.

The platform, named Snapdragon 8 Elite, was launched at Qualcomm's annual tech summit in Maui, U.S. state of Hawaii.

The platform powers a new era of on-device generative AI, built to handle the complexities of multi-modal AI seamlessly while prioritizing privacy.

Snapdragon 8 Elite, featuring Qualcomm's next generation custom-built Oryon CPU, is the most powerful and world's fastest mobile system-on-a-chip ever, according to Qualcomm.

The platform delivers improved performance and power efficiency across the board and transforms on-device experiences with support for multimodal generative AI, redefined AI photography, gaming and studio-quality audio -- all backed by AI-enhanced connectivity.

Earlier this year, Qualcomm debuted Oryon CPU in personal computers (PC).

"We are so excited to bring the power of Qualcomm Oryon to our Snapdragon mobile platforms for the first time," said Chris Patrick, senior vice president and general manager of mobile handsets, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

"It's a major leap forward and we expect consumers to be thrilled with the new experiences enabled by our CPU technology," he said.

The first-in-mobile Qualcomm Oryon CPU delivers a 45 percent performance boost, 44 percent greater power efficiency, and the mobile industry's largest shared data cache, according to Qualcomm.

The tech summit, named Snapdragon Summit, runs from Monday to Wednesday, during which the company launches its next-generation platforms and showcases innovative technologies that will power consumer devices and automobiles. Enditem
