Leak claims to have info on Snapdragon 820 and other upcoming Qualcomm chips

The Snapdragon 810 is Qualcomm’s new hotness, and we’ll likely see it in several flagship smartphones throughout 2015. If you’re a spec hound, though, you’ve now got an even higher-end chip to keep on your radar.

A document leaked by the @leaksfly Twitter account has allegedly revealed information on a number of upcoming Qualcomm processors. There are quad-core and octa-core chips included that support LTE-Advanced, LPDDR4 RAM, and lots of other goodies.

On the high-end we can see Snapdragon 815 and 820 chips. The former’s got an octa-core SoC with Big.Little architecture, Adreno 450 GPU, LPDDR4 RAM, LTE-A support, and 20nm process. The step up is the Snapragon 820, which is a 64-bit octa-core processor with an Adreno 530 GPU, LPDDR4 RAM, LTE-A support, and a 14nm process.

Unfortunately, while this document may shed light on Qualcomm’s upcoming processors, it doesn’t say when they’ll be released. The Snapdragon 820 certainly sounds like a beast of a chip, though, and while it’s not really a surprise that Qualcomm may be working on that kind of powerhouse, it’s still pretty exciting.
