Qualcomm FastConnect 8800 at MWC 2026: 10+ Gbps Wi‑Fi 8, 4x4 Antennas, UWB & Proximity Tech

In this episode, I talk with Chano Gomez, Senior Director of Product Management for Mobile Connectivity at Qualcomm, about the launch of FastConnect 8800 at MWC and what it means for next-generation wireless experiences. Chano explains Qualcomm’s FastConnect brand and how this new chip is the first in smartphones to deliver speeds beyond 10Gbps by adding 4x4 Wi‑Fi with four antennas, doubling speed, and extending range. We also cover how FastConnect 8800 uniquely integrates Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, UWB, and Thread in a single mobile chip, plus what’s new in UWB for longer-range finding and digital car access. Finally, we discuss why rising 4K streaming and emerging agent AI workloads will drive greater bandwidth needs, and when to expect phones with FastConnect 8800 later this year. 00:00 Meet the Guests 00:32 FastConnect Explained 00:56 10Gbps and 4x4 WiFi 01:35 Why Four Antennas 02:47 Beyond Smartphones 03:37 UWB Upgrades 04:07 Bandwidth and Agent AI 05:37 Proximity Features 06:59 Launch Timing Wrap Up
