Simmer down: Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 815 will run cooler than the 810

By now, everyone knows that the Snapdragon 810 may or may not be experiencing issues regarding its temperature. There are claims that the processor from Qualcomm gets abnormally hot, worrying some hardware manufacturers to the point where they have opted for in-house solutions. The Galaxy S6, regardless of market, will use an Exynos processor from Samsung. HTC is sticking with the Snapdragon 810 anyways. The truth is that there is so much confusion regarding the matter. What we do know is that the Snapdragon 810’s successor will run cooler than it.

Tests were conducted to compare temperatures between the Snapdragon 801, 810, and 815. Those are the past, present, and future processors for Qualcomm. All tests were based on devices with 3GB of RAM and a 5-inch, 1080p display. The game Asphalt 8 Airbone was used to put the processors to work. The upcoming Snapdragon 815 had a lower maximum temperature than the other two, staying cool at 38°. The Snapdragon 801 reached 42° and the Snapdragon 810 touched 44°.

If the Snapdragon 810’s heating issues has you all worked up, either look at a device without it or wait until Qualcomm’s next processor.
