Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 With On-Device Generative AI, 20 Percent Improved CPU Performance Launched

Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 was unveiled on Tuesday as Qualcomm's latest midrange smartphone processor. The new chipset is the most affordable model in the lineup that also includes the more powerful Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 and Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3. The chipmaker says that its newest processor will enable the use of generative AI features on more mid-tier smartphones. The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 is also claimed to offer up to 20 percent and 40 percent improved CPU and GPU performance, respectively.

Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 Availability Timeline

Xiaomi will launch the first smartphone with the newly announced Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 (SM7635) in September, according to Qualcomm. Other device makers — including Realme, Samsung, and Sharp — will also introduce handsets equipped with the chipset in the coming months.

Smartphones that run on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 are likely to arrive at a lower price than those powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 and Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 — these chipsets were unveiled by Qualcomm in November 2023 and March, respectively.

Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 Specifications

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 is a 4nm octa-core chipset that comprises a Prime core clocked at 2.5GHz, along with three performance cores (2.4GHz) and four efficiency cores (1.8GHz). It supports up to 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and an unspecified amount of UFS 3.1 storage, along with USB 3.1 Type-C connectivity.

Qualcomm is touting the on-device Generative AI capabilities of the new Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, which offers support for large language models (LLMs) such as Baichuan-7B and Llama 2 at 1B parameters. It also supports translation and transcription features in multiple languages, according to the chipmaker.

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 supports smartphone displays at Full-HD+ resolution, with up to 144Hz refresh rate. It also supports external displays at up to 4K resolution, with a 60Hz refresh rate.

Handsets powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 can be equipped with a 200-megapixel camera, or up to three 21-megapixel cameras. It has three 12-bit image signal processors (ISPs) and supports video recording at up to 4K/ 30fps and slow-motion video recording at 1080p/ 120fps. 

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 supports for 5G connectivity via the chipmaker's 5G Modem-RF system. Qualcomm says download speeds can reach as high as 2.9Gbps, and both mmWave and Sub-6 5G networks are supported. Meanwhile, the Qualcomm FastConnect mobile connectivity system enables support for Wi-Fi 6E networks and Blueooth 5.4 connectivity. The chipset also supports Qualcomm's Quick Charge 4+ technology, which means smartphones should be able to support charging at up to 100W.

COVID-19 origins: Should we pay more attention to the lab leak theory and formally investigate it?

Image
A year and a half into the pandemic, we still do not know exactly where the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid-19, came from. The prevailing view so far has been that the virus “spilled over” from bats into humans. But there are increasing calls to investigate the possibility that it emerged from a lab in Wuhan, China, where Covid first appeared at the end of 2019. So what do we know for sure, and what do we need still to find out? We know the sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is close to that of bat coronaviruses . Several decades ago its “ancestor” was circulating in bat populations in southern Asia. But there are still many unanswered questions: we don’t know how the virus arrived in Wuhan, how its sequence evolved to allow human infection, and under what conditions it infected the first people who crossed its path. And for each of these stages, we don’t know whether there was a human contribution (direct or indirect). Zoonotic transmission pathways, in other words the pas

Menstrual cups are cheaper, more sustainable than pads and tampons for women

Image
Every year in America, women spend at least US$2.8 billion on sanitary pads and tampons that can take hundreds of years to decompose . Is there a more economical and environmentally friendly way? To find out, we asked Susan Powers , a professor of sustainable environmental systems at Clarkson University about her work comparing the environmental impact of tampons, sanitary pads and menstrual cups. What is a menstrual cup? A menstrual cup is a type of reusable feminine hygiene product. It’s a small, flexible bell-shaped cup made of rubber or silicone that a woman inserts into her vagina to catch and collect menstrual fluid. It can be used for up to 12 hours, after which it is removed to dispose of the fluid and cleaned. The cup is rinsed with hot water and soap between each insertion and sterilized in boiling water at least once per period. A cup can last up to 10 years . Although menstrual cups have been around for decades, they historically have been less popular than pads or ta

Human bodies respond to infections differently depending on the time of day

Image
When microorganisms – such as bacteria or viruses – infect us, our immune system jumps into action. It’s highly trained to sense and eliminate infections and clear up any damage caused by them. It’s typically assumed our immune systems work the exact same way regardless of whether an infection occurs during the day or at night. But research spanning over half a century now shows our bodies actually respond differently at day and night. The reason for this is our body clock, and the fact that each cell in the body, including our immune cells, can tell what time of day it is. Our body clock has evolved over millions of years to help us survive. Every cell in the body has a collection of proteins that indicate the time depending on their levels. Knowing whether it’s day or night means our body can adjust its functions and behaviours (such as when we want to eat) to the correct time. Our body clock does this by generating 24 hour rhythms (also termed circadian rhythms ) in how cells f
