Washington [US], October 26 (ANI): American multinational corporation Qualcomm has announced a pile of new Snapdragon chips today across its mid and entry-level product lineups, which includes the Snapdragon 778 Plus, 695, 680, and 480 Plus.
According to The Verge, this new lineup will offer more options to device manufacturers when it comes to picking the best processor for a phone and, in theory, more choice for customers when they're looking to buy one.
The most notable new chip to come out is the Snapdragon 695, which would be replacing the Snapdragon 690 in Qualcomm's lineup.
Unlike the older model, the Snapdragon 695 will support both mmWave and sub-6GHz versions of 5G, which should help improve data speeds even on cheaper phones (which have thus far tended to skip out on offering mmWave support).
There's also a considerable boost in performance as Qualcomm promises a 15-per cent improvement in CPU performance and up to 30 per cent faster graphics rendering compared to the 690.
There's also the curious addition of the Snapdragon 680, a new LTE-only SoC that's built on the same, more modern 6nm process as the 695.
It's not quite up to par with the new 5G chip that Qualcomm announced but rather is intended to help fill the gap in Qualcomm's lineup for companies that still are looking for 4G-only devices. This can help cut costs in regions that don't have 5G deployments yet.
The remaining two chips are refreshed versions of existing modes. There's the Snapdragon 778G Plus, an enhanced version of the standard 778G model that the company announced earlier this year, and the Snapdragon 480 Plus, which upgrades the existing Snapdragon 480.
As per The Verge, both models promise boosted performance compared to their non-plus counterparts, although the gains are small. The 778G Plus, for example, sees its CPU go from 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz, while 480 Plus boosts clock speed from 2.0GHz to 2.2GHz. (ANI)

Curapod review: The Future of at-home pain management?

The Curapod by Litemed operates on the principles of Photobiomodulation (PBM). To simplify, it utilizes a combination of red and near-infrared (NIR) light. These specific wavelengths are designed to penetrate up to 70mm into the tissue. Unlike a standard heat pack, which is commonly seen in almost every household and only provides surface-level relief, Curapod targets cellular activity and local blood flow to support the body's natural recovery process. It is a non-invasive, drug-free approach aimed at common pain points like the lower back, knees, and shoulders.
