Qualcomm announced its flagship chipset – the Snapdragon 865 last December at the Snapdragon Tech Summit 2019 held in Hawaii. The company has recently shared the first 8K video shot on their prototype Snapdragon 865 smartphone and I’ve got to admit, it looks magnificent.
Qualcomm credits its new Spectra 480 Image Signal Processor (ISP) present in the Snapdragon 865 for making this possible. In case you’re out of the loop, the Spectra 480 ISP processes images and videos at a blazingly fast 2 Gigapixels per second. It supports up to 200MP and enables various features including unlimited HD 960fps slo-mo video recording, 8K video recording, 4K HDR, and more.
