Shubham-Yadav, 16 Jan 2015The apple a8x has just 3 cores but those deliver 4500 on geek bench which is higher than that ... moreVery well said. Yes of course a8x and the upcoming a9 will be giant of them all. I guess no dragon can beat that. are we on same side?

Hell qualcomm didn't even solve overheating issues.. Hands are already burning.. One day qualcomm chips catch fire..

My guess is that this is being pushed out semi-fixed, and will still overheat and throttle just like the 610 and 615 before it. I wouldn't be keen to be a customer of an early SD 810 device ...

Architecture matters, not the number of cores or frequency.

Adreno 430 in Snapdragon 810 has 288 shader cores clocked at 600 MHz.

How was the problem i.e. over heating fixed? Reduction of clock frequency?

AnonD-348333, 16 Jan 2015All hail the Nvidia X1 Beast..!!The mighty X1 takes up 5 w of power. It's made for tablet.
Comparing a tablet chip to mobile will be equivalent to comparing tablet chip to laptop chip or laptop chip to a desktop one.
Increase in power comes at the cost of power consumption.

Steve Austin, 16 Jan 2015You do realize Z3 was the only phone that lets you record 4k for more than 5 minutes. Eh hello, I recorded more than 20 minutes 4k Video via my Note3 N9005. are u sleeping ???

Bet it's nerfed clock speed wise an the new mantra will be about bits instead of cycles.
Even when the competition and older Qualcomm kick its arse.

darkraver, 16 Jan 2015Just like any other top processor...Indeed. There IS an issue. Have been for a long time. The question is not if, but how big it would be

On the other hand i've heared Sony is not the only one having this issue, so maybe the chip really is too hot.

Sony doesnt, their flagship records more than 5 min and until its sensors say its overheated. So...a plus to Xperia, minus to others
