The 64-bit Kryta CPU is one of the bigger changes and will reportedly offer twice the performance of the 810. It’s comprised of the X12 LTE modem, Kryo CPU, Adreno 530 GPU, Hexagon DSP, and Spectra ISP. The new 14nm Snapdragon 820 has a completely different architecture to its predecessor, the 810. But how much better is it than the Snapdragon 810? Let’s take a closer look. Naturally, it’s the fastest Snapdragon yet. The chip powers the new LG G5, the HTC 10, and even the Samsung Galaxy S7 in certain regions. Qualcomm seems determined to rectify those mistakes with 2016’s Snapdragon 820. The Samsung Galaxy S6ran on the company’s own Exynos chip, while the LG G4 took a slight step down to the less demanding Snapdragon 808. Samsung and LG turned to other chips for their early-2015 flagships. However, it was hampered by reports of overheating and performance throttling – something we saw first-hand with the likes of the HTC One M9. Yes, the chip powered a number of top handsets, and benchmarked well. Qualcomm didn’t have a great time of it last year with the Snapdragon 810. Our original article comparing the Snapdragon 820 and its predecessors is below.
The Adreno 530 graphics chip has also received a slight performance increase, going from 624MHz up to 650MHz and possibly beyond, depending on the desires of individual phone manufacturers.

However, manufacturers have final say over how high clock speeds go so we may not see every Snapdragon 821 phone getting full power out the chip.
The two lower-power cores have received a bigger boost, going from 1.6GHz to 2GHz. The maximum clock speed of the two high-power processing cores have been increased from 2.2GHz up to 2.4GHz. Since it’s the same chip with the same architecture, the boost in clock speed will increase power consumption, so only manufacturers making phones with high-capacity batteries will want to put these in their phones. The 820 will continue to be manufactured, with Qualcomm making very clear that this new specification is
Update: We’re expecting Google to announce its new Pixel and Pixel XL phones this evening, and both are set to be the mass-market debut of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821.ĭon’t call it a sequel: Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 821 is a slightly more powerful version of its 820 chip, with a minor bump in clock speeds across the board to give it roughly 10% more processing performance.
