5G’s just getting started, but Qualcomm’s already talking up its third chip for the ultra-fast network. And Samsung’s planning to use it in future Galaxy S devices.
Qualcomm on Monday at MWC in Barcelona unveiled its first processor that integrates its 5G modem technology with the Snapdragon applications processor that serves as the brains of a device. The first two 5G chips from Qualcomm were standalone modems that worked alongside a main computing processor.
