Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 will support 5G

-
According to the publication "PC Magazine" the current processor Snapdragon 845 will replace not 855, but 850 series. The highlight of the new chipset will be the support of the latest generation 5G networks. And the new product from Qualcomm will be the first, which will support the custom 5G-modem.
Changing the name of the chipset to 850 may be dictated by the desire to emphasize in the name of the x50 - the 5G network.

Most likely, Snapdragon 850 will be announced at the end of 2018.
