It seems like Qualcomm is set to unveil more than one new mobile SoC in the Snapdragon 600 series at its event on Tuesday, May 9 as the company has been tipped to launch Snapdragon 630 and Snapdragon 635 alongside the Snapdragon 660.

After press invite sent out by the company, Qualcomm was expected to launch its Snapdragon 660 SoC on May 9 but as per a tweet by @mmddj_china, the company could also unveil its Snapdragon 635 and Snapdragon 630 SoC at the event.

While Qualcomm's Snapdragon 660 SoC will be the successor to Snapdragon 652 SoC, the details about the other two SoCs are currently as thin as it gets.
