No more heating problems on Snapdragon 820?
Qualcomm Snapdragon, the famous chipset for many high end Android mobiles, upgrades its products time after time. Known for being powerful with these chipsets, Qualcomm has earned its place in the market. However, as the new Snapdragon series keep getting overheating issues, this becomes a very hot topic whenever Qualcomm released a new chip.
As we all knew, there was earlier info about Snapdragon 820 facing the same overheating issues as its predecessor, Snapdragon 810. Snapdragon 810 and earlier versions’ overheating is not a new problem to Android users anymore. If you are familiar with the phones powered by these chipset, you may have experienced your device’s “hot like fire” problems whenever the CPU accelerated already.
The issue seems not to be the case on Snapdragon 820 though. Recently, an info from Kevin Wang, a researcher for IHS Technology China, stated that Snapdragon 820 is ideal to be integrated into any device. According to Kevin Wang, this issue can be prevented by using the four custom cores and a 14nm process. Moreover, Qualcomm has claimed that the 820 chipset will not be heating like your oven. It seems we have found the solution to overheating.
It seems that Qualcomm will not be shipping any Snapdragon before December. As many mobile manufacturers have begun to develop their phones with Snapdragon 820, we will see how the famous chipset performs soon.

Let’s hope that Qualcomm release it as soon as possible so we can have many flagships such as Xiaomi Mi5 or Asus Zenfone Pad2 in our hands this year!
