Qualcomm has announced two new chipsets aimed at strengthening the mid-range and entry-level smartphone space. The Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 and Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 mark the company’s next wave of affordable mobile platforms focusing on faster performance, improved imaging support and upgraded efficiency. With both processors expected to appear in 2026 devices, they signal Qualcomm’s ongoing push to remain competitive in the budget segment.

Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2

The Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 is positioned as a dependable option for low-cost phones while still offering noticeable improvements over its predecessor. It comes with a Kryo CPU clocked at up to 2.9GHz and an enhanced Adreno GPU that delivers smoother visuals and gains in graphical output. The chipset supports 120fps playback on Full HD Plus displays, helping reduce lag in gaming and multimedia.

Imaging is also a key focus, with support for cameras up to 108-megapixel and the ability to capture photos and videos through multiple lenses at the same time. Qualcomm has strengthened AI-related functions as well, improving voice assistance and ensuring clearer audio through better microphone and echo management. These upgrades are intended to help budget phones deliver more reliable everyday performance.

Snapdragon 4 Gen 4

The Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 continues the same philosophy but leans more towards efficiency. It features a Kryo CPU capped at 2.3GHz along with an Adreno GPU that can handle 120fps output on compatible displays. Like the 6s 4G Gen 2, it supports 108-megapixel cameras, but adds hardware-level multi frame noise reduction for cleaner low light shots.

Battery life is another highlight, as the chip supports Quick Charge 4 Plus which can bring a phone from zero to fifty percent in about fifteen minutes. With 5G and Wi-Fi enhancements included, the chipset aims to power upcoming entry-level smartphones with a more balanced performance profile.
