I guess, since SD7+Gen3 is more closer relate to SD8s Gen3 in terms of it's architecture than SD7 Gen3, hence the misleading,

Bilal Hussain Shaikh , 7+ Gen series chipsets are always superior to the base 7 Gen. So basically, Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 is an upgrade from 7+ Gen 2, not the base 7 Gen 3. That's why the new 7 Gen 4 is worse compared to the 7+ Gen 3.

Qualcomm has messed up the naming scheme. The 7+ Gen 3 is nearly twice as powerful as the SD 7 Gen 3. It should have been named 7 Gen 4.

No, that's not how it works. The 7+ Gen 3 is the "upgraded" version of the 7 Gen 3, hence the "plus". The 7 Gen 4 would be better, perhaps.

King Miracle., SD 7 Plus Gen3 is an upgraded version of 7 Plus Gen2, which comes with Poco F5.

King Miracle., No bro 7 gen 4 is less powerful than 7 plus gen3 because the series 7 plus gen 2 is much powerful than 7 gen 3.
