The latest chipset is also equipped with the new sixth-generation Qualcomm AI Engine paired with the completely re-engineered Qualcomm Hexagon processor. Moreover, the chipset is expected to deliver improved performance and power efficiency for AI tasks with 26 tera operations per second (TOPS).  It is also further enhanced with the 2nd generation Qualcomm Sensing Hub, which combines AI processing for instinctive and intelligent features.
