Now Smarter and More Powerful

Powered by Snapdragon™ or MSM™ chipsets, smartphones now coming to market are lighter and more powerful than ever. With larger, high-resolution display screens and faster processing, smartphones give you reliable voice, data, Internet, and GPS navigation-but now in an even thinner form factor that still fits in your pocket.

Beyond Voice and SMS

The majority of mobile phones sold today, feature phones deliver services that move people far beyond the era of voice and SMS-only services. Whether it’s a hotkey to a person’s favorite social networking site, a multimedia player or a themed interface, many of today’s top feature phones rely on Qualcomm chipsets to deliver a more personalized mobile user experience.

Data to Go

Life is in constant motion – it’s mobile. And now your digital life is going mobile. Qualcomm chipsets drive some of the most popular and portable notebook computers available. They’re also the catalyst inside the newest generation of thin modem datacards as well as the very popular, very compact USB data dongles.
