Qualcomm confirmed TSMC as the exclusive manufacturer for its new 2nm Snapdragon flagship processors.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 will power next-generation premium Android devices.
This agreement extends TSMC’s role as Qualcomm’s sole top-tier chip producer, a position held since 2022.
Qualcomm shifted production to TSMC following performance issues with previous Samsung-made components.
Samsung Electronics' foundry division lost the contract despite active competition for the high-end business.
Qualcomm continues to collaborate with both foundries for potential future manufacturing needs.
