According to reports, mid-range models priced between 2000-2500 yuan will feature flagship platforms such as Qualcomm SM8845, Dimensity 9400+, and Dimensity 9500e. The Snapdragon 8 Elite may also appear in this price segment, although the number of models will be relatively small.
This iteration of new devices mostly includes a metal mid-frame, with a small portion featuring ultrasonic fingerprint sensors, all equipped with large-capacity batteries, providing a core experience close to flagship levels.
It is reported that models like iQOO Neo11 and REDMI K90 will be equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite platform, while a new product line from OnePlus will feature the Qualcomm SM8845, which is expected to be named Snapdragon 8 Gen5. These models are all targeted at the 2500 yuan price range, making for fierce competition.
As Qualcomm’s flagship platforms, both the Snapdragon 8 Elite and Snapdragon 8 Gen5 have achieved AnTuTu scores of 3 million points, making products equipped with these chips highly cost-effective in the 2500 yuan segment.
