Qualcomm is rolling out new upscaling technology called Snapdragon Game Super Resolution.
Qualcomm claims its upscaling tech can boost games from 1080p to 4K and 30FPS to 60 and over FPS.
Mobile games and XR products that use this tech will launch later this year.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has done a lot to take Android games to the next level. Even the ROG Phone 7, a mobile gaming powerhouse, relies on the SoC. And it looks like the maker of the chip, Qualcomm, isn’t quite done with enhancing mobile gaming. The company is launching new tech that should give games a boost in resolution and performance while minimizing battery drain.

Today, Qualcomm announced via blog post that it is rolling out new upscaling tech for mobile gaming and XR products. The new tech is called Snapdragon Game Super Resolution (GSR), and it’s aimed at maximizing mobile game performance and battery life. GSR won’t just be for Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 phones either, it will also bring improvements to phones with older chips as well.
