Qualcomm has announced a multi-generational product partnership with Amazon, the latest in a series of moves by the chipmaker to lock in long-term supply agreements with major technology platforms as it pushes aggressively beyond its smartphone roots.
For a company trying to convince Wall Street it can generate over $15 billion in data center revenue by fiscal 2029, each new long-term deal helps build that case.
A relationship that goes back over a decade
Qualcomm and Amazon are not strangers. Their hardware collaboration traces back to 2014, when the ill-fated Amazon Fire Phone shipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 processor inside.
In January 2025, the two companies publicly announced a collaboration focused on AI-driven in-vehicle experiences. That effort paired Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Digital Cockpit Platform with Amazon’s AI services, including the Alexa Custom Assistant, to create smarter automotive cabin technology.
