What it is
Snapdragon system-on-chip products for premium and mid-range Android phones, sold to device makers that also use Qualcomm's modem technology.
Why it matters to the stock. Handsets still set most of the quarterly revenue, so memory supply and phone demand move the stock more than any other single factor.
