Qualcomm’s first APQ8350 based game console with Android 12 won’t get a 4G or 5G modem.

More details have surfaced about a handheld game console similar to the Nintendo Switch that may be built by Qualcomm.

According to Roland Quandt of Winfuture.de, Qualcomm’s handheld console won’t have a 4G or 5G modem. In addition, it uses the APQ8350 platform and not the Snapdragon 888 as reported in March. Perhaps during the testing process, Qualcomm decided that the presence of a modem too much affects the battery life.
