I Tested the First Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 Phone! Ft. Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro

Qualcomm is utter mad with their chipset names these days.

The "s" in 8s gen 3 stands for SLOW 😂

Thank you for the clarity 😄

Literally, tech companies needs some special persons for the Product naming… 😵

Thanks for the information

It would have been bonkers if 8s gen3 was a slightly overclocked version of 8 gen2 with the same GPU setup, because the GPU in 8 gen2 is miles ahead of what is being offered on 7+ Gen2 (talking on terms efficiency and power consumption) But albeit this turned out to be an Intel like move from snapdragon by confusing us consumers with complex naming schemes lmao, the video addressed my doubts regarding this mysterious chipset (thank you!!), Hoping that Poco F6 would launch with 8 Gen2 instead of this processor, although chances are slim for that to happen.

The naming of Snapdragon processors is overally pretty confusing, especially with the 7 series.

1:35 I laughed so hard at the score😂 It's just unbelievabl

So they couldn't name it 7++ gen3 ?

Same like 7s Gen 2 which was basically upgrade over 6 Gen 1.

You are right about the performance here. I agree that it similar to a midrange chipset and not a flagship one. But things to remember: 8 series processors even if low performance has advantage of flagship chips like AI features and their update cycle is way more, because of which Samsung and Google can give 7 years of updates

Thank man 👍

Truly explained ✔️

It has half the cache of 8 gen 3/2. Which makes it less efficient and it runs hot also gpu is significantly weaker than 8gen2. Both 7+gen3 & 8s gen 3 are 30k smartphones SoC.

Love when channels call out companies marketing tricks. You have my respect.

Counting down the days until I get my hands on the Xiaomi 14 Civi! Heard the camera is a game-changer, can't wait to test it out.

I'm watching you from Iraq and you are the best 🌷

Thank you for making this video! It really helps me about this new chipset!

the two chips are so close that it comes down to the tuning

It would be better if manufacturers started using 7 plus gen 2 now in mid range phones
