In February 2015, Qualcomm re-branded its stand-alone modem products under the Snapdragon name; they were distinguished from SoCs using the "x" designation, such as the X7 or X12 modem.[1] The first Snapdragon modem for 5G networks, the X50, was announced in late 2016.[90] This was followed by the 2GBs X24 modem on a 7 nanometer manufacturing process that was announced in February 2018.[91]
