According to ASUS, the phone will offer the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus which will be a 7nm SoC, utilizing a Kryo 485 CPU that is clocked up to 2.96GHz and an Adreno 640. The new chip is 4.2 percent faster and can offer the capability of delivering graphics performance with a 15 percent improvement over the current top model Snapdragon 855 that was announced in December of 2018.
