Snapdragon 808 by Qualcomm is among the most favorite smartphone chip sets nowadays. It’s got a 64 bit six-core CPU (with two ARM Cortex A57 cores and four ARM Cortex A53 cores) that can power high-end devices. It is both powerful enough to be chosen for many flagships and “cool” enough to prevent overheating problem. In short, Snapdragon 808 is that one chipset that will satisfy both smartphone producers and smartphone users, no matter how strict they can be.
Here are some of the best handset I have generated that run on Snapdragon 808. Of course I myself can not cover all of the devices out there. So if you think I miss any of your favorite, let me know either by commenting under this article or leave me a message on our PricePony fanpage. All contribution are highly appreciated!
