Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 is reportedly 50% faster than Samsung’s flagship Exynos CPU
We’re all eagerly awaiting Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820, and hoping that it doesn’t have the same heating issues that plagued the Snapdragon 810. A new rumor circulating is adding to the hype train, claiming that the upcoming 820 will be 50% than Samsung’s current flagship Exynos chip.
Samsung’s Galaxy S6 currently uses the Exynos 7420, and it’s nothing short of a powerhouse processor. If Qualcomm manages to make a processor that’s effectively 50% faster than that, they’re going to have an incredibly powerful CPU for 2016.
All things considered, though, it’s important to remember that Samsung will also likely introduce a newer processor to compete with the Snapdragon 820, so the 50% faster metric won’t be totally accurate if we’re comparing apples to apples. However, we haven’t heard anything about Samsung improving performance by 50%, so things are shaping up nicely for Qualcomm next year, which is great news after their rough 2015.
