Qualcomm Announces Three New Snapdragon Chipsets

Qualcomm has announced three new chipsets at the Mobile World Congress. The first of which is the Snapdragon 801, which is an update to the current Snapdragon 800. The 801's CPU clock speed has been bumped up from 2.26GHz to 2.45GHz, the GPU clock speed from 450MHz to 578MHz and the memory bus from 800MHz to 933MHz. The Snapdragon 801 also adds support for the eMMC 5.0 standard, which allows the use of faster embedded flash storage, such as the new SanDisk iNAND Extreme.

The next two are the Snapdragon 610 and the 615, both of which are Qualcomm's newest 64-bit chipsets. The Snapdragon 610 employs four 64-bit ARM Cortex A53 cores along with Adreno 405 GPU. The Snapdragon 615 doubles the core count, going for an eight core A53 configuration with everything else being identical to the 610. Expect to see these chipsets in devices in the last quarter of 2014.
