Will Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon mobile chip enable an Android UWB future?
The Snapdragon 8 Elite chip comes with ultra wideband baked in, and it won’t require smartphone makers to add extra hardware to take advantage of it, reports Android Authority.
Not every Android phone supports UWB, which is used for precision location features (think AirTags). Perhaps that’ll change with the 8 Elite, given Qualcomm’s chips’ popularity with Android device makers.
