Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 "Fusion Platform" will include the SDX50 5G Modem
A Softbank Japan earnings presentation has confirmed that the official name of the Snapdragon 845's successor will be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855, with the SDM855 codename. It will be branded as the "Snapdragon 855 Fusion Platform" along with the SDX50 5G modem.
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 was officially announced in December. We're starting to see more smartphones launch with Qualcomm's newest flagship system-on-chip. The US/China variant of the Samsung Galaxy S9, the Asus ZenFone 5Z, the Sony Xperia XZ2, and XZ2 Compact all feature the chip. This list will only continue to grow over the remainder of this year. Even though the Snapdragon 845 is yet to actually reach the hands of consumers, we're already hearing about its successor, the Snapdragon 855.
