Previously, Qualcomm introduced a new generation of Snapdragon 870 chip. Motorola immediately announced its new generation of flagship Motorola Edge S, and said that it will debut the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chip. The launch date is set on January 26.
Today, Motorola officially posted a teaser stating that it will be equipped with the Snapdragon 870 + Turbo LPDDR5 + Turbo UFS 3.1. Among them, Turbo LPDDR5 can expand the virtual memory, speeding up by 72%, As for Turbo UFS 3.1, it comes with a write speed increase of 700MB/s, HPB read performance is improved, and it is more durable. The overall efficiency increased by 25%.
The Motorola Edge S powered by the Snapdragon 870 appeared on AnTuTu. The laboratory score reached 679,860 points. This is a quite good result when taking into account the ‘role’ of the Snapdragon 870. You should know that this is a pseudo-flagship chip. It comes with many parameters inherited from the Snapdragon 888. But at the same time, it is considered to be the overclocked version of the previous Snapdragon 865+. So on the one hand, it’s not a true flagship chip. And on the other hand, it can beat many rivals on the market.
