Featured DocumentsProduct Brief

Always On*, Always Connected

Your phone is always on and always connected. Why isn't your PC? Delivering the smartphone experience on your PC requires extraordinary efficiency, long battery life, and robust connectivity options. The Snapdragon 7c compute platform is specifically engineered to bring those capabilities to entry level PCs. With battery life that can be measured in days and Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity, you can have a superior Always On, Always Connected PC computing experience.

Multi-day battery life**

Using an advanced 8nm manufacturing process, the Snapdragon 7c compute platform delivers great performance capabilities with incredible efficiency for unbelievable battery life. Bringing the core technologies of your PC into a single system on a chip (SoC) highly integrates an octa-core processor and powerful graphics with Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity technologies to give you the performance you need in a system that supports battery life measurable in days, not hours.

Thin and fanless

Highly integrating the core technologies of your PC into a single, energy efficient processor allows the Snapdragon 7c compute platform to deliver great performance while consuming minimal power. In addition to extending battery life, energy efficiency creates less heat. That means that your PC using the Snapdragon 7c compute platform doesn't need heavy thermal solutions or fans, creating a lighter and quieter thin and fanless system.

Efficient octa-core CPU

When you need to get a lot done, sometimes you need some help. The Snapdragon 7c compute platform comes with an octa-core processor, so there are lots of compute cores to help get your work done. The highly integrated platform means those cores have lots of help as well. The advanced manufacturing process adds to the efficiency, so you get a system that gets work done fast, with battery life that can thrill!

Immersive graphics performance

Everyone needs some time to relax. When you get those moments, you want to make sure you can savor them. With the graphics power built into the Snapdragon 7c compute platform, enjoy a little light gaming, or you can stream the latest videos at up to 4K HDR resolutions.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

The Snapdragon 7c is capable of over 5 trillion operations per second with the Qualcomm® Artificial Intelligence (AI) Engine. Modern experiences are increasingly enabled by AI accelerated applications. To fully benefit from the natural interaction that is enabled by these incredible new applications, you need a system with an AI engine capable of efficiently powering them. The Snapdragon 7c compute platform delivers AI.
