Qualcomm didn't spend much time covering the Snapdragon 845 but we should expect the company to partner up with Xiaomi since they had the company founder and CEO, Lei Jun, on-stage today at the Snapdragon Tech Summit here in Maui, Hawaii.

The new Snapdragon 845 will be maed on the 10nm process, with the inclusion of the super-fast X20 LTE modem which is capable of gigabit speeds on the right network. We should hear more information on Snapdragon 845 as the conference continues, so I'll update this post when I can.
