Qualcomm to produce cheap snapdragon processors for laptops

Qualcomm seeks to expand its presence in the laptop market with its processors. For this reason, in its strategy for this year, the American company will launch more processors in more ranges. They are not going to focus only on the high-end, but will launch Snapdragon processors for cheaper laptops as well.

Qualcomm to produce cheap Snapdragon processors for laptops

This is a new strategy for the manufacturer, which until now focused primarily on expensive laptops. But in 2019 we will see how its presence expands in other market segments.

Presence in more ranges

Qualcomm's vice president himself already confirms this new strategy. The idea is to have a presence in models of more than $ 800, but also in laptops whose price is less than $ 300. At the moment we do not know if they already have agreements with some brands, although the company says that they will soon leave us with new data in this regard. So there will surely be more news.

They also hope that in the future there will be Chromebooks with Snapdragon processors. Although until now, the collaboration between the two companies is not the best, so for now it is not something that will happen, at least in the immediate future. But the company works on it.

In addition to this, Qualcomm will soon introduce the first 5G processor for a laptop, to be released with a new laptop from Lenovo. So there are many news from the firm in these coming weeks. We hope to know soon which brands will use these Snapdragon chips, and especially which processors will be used.
