mir, 06 Jan 2016Is your LTE provider already giving you up to 600mbps speed?These spec/numbers junkies Crack me up, they will go and spend "burn hundreds of dollars" to have the latest and greatest "with a 10-20 percent improvement if that, because the manufacturer says so in a controlled synthetic test". Technology has reached a tipping point, instead of concentrating on software that will take advantage of the powerful pocket computers and battery life, they just keep bumping up the cpu/gpu numbers, it's not like you are going to play crysis on you smartphone, if you optimize your software there is no real need for 4GB of ram on a phone "unless you are doing CAD work on your smartphone".

    Why 820 not octa core? I thought that would be the next generation of chipsets, I am no saying that Quad core is bad, just asking why they moved from octa to quad

                              It's so apparent the Samsung trolls are out in force, jealous of this world beating s820. Well done Qualcomm, Samsung needs to admit defeat as it makes such crap chips and we all know that!

                                mir, 06 Jan 2016Is your LTE provider already giving you up to 600mbps speed?ahh another noob here ,..well world is full of noobs
                                if u dont have tech to support that speed,no one will try to give that speed,..
                                if u have tech to support,atleast now they can try those speed in future
                                and it is not just about speed
                                Up to 4x4 MIMO on one carrier,high QAM in both uplink ,downlink than before ..
                                and why are you guys cryin over better things in a SoC,if its crap,u can cry as y this is crap,..but man, they are improved in way lot more than speed of cpu...and u guys are cryin as bad[or u guys are some fangirl of other SoC???]

                                      SD820 is totally new
                                      new zeroth tech
                                      60fps in 4k decoding
                                      quick charge 3.0
                                      sense ID fingerprint sensor
                                      DDR4 with 1866mhz speed
                                      LTE speeds of up to 600 Mbps
                                      802.11ad and 802.11ac 2x2 MU-MIMO
                                      emmc 5.1
                                      all these are not in SD810
                                      also adreno 530 is the king of gpu in mobile segment for now
                                      and due to 14nm FET,it is more efficient ,low heat,high performance than SD810
