WTF is a snapdragon LMAO
dude111, 10 Apr 2019Support it =/= actually doing it.
We had support since last year if not sooner but at this ... moreMost of the OEMs did not choose to offer.
Last year only LG had 4K HDR10.
Sony is not HDR10, but Hybrid Log Gamma ( requires stacked sensor).
CPU has the support, it is up to the OEM to provide the software for that.
Apple still has only SDR recording, then advertise as "CINEMATIC".
Great cinematic when not even controls are offer like LG V series and Xperia 1
Kangal, 09 Apr 2019Those lithography numbers are little more than marketing at this point. Tech nerds like me kno... moreSince im buying flagships only i have some knowledge about high end cpu's. But when it comes to midrange or low end im lost totaly. But this analysis of yours is some crazy informative stuf. Bravo:)

And no, smart HDR ... moreSupport it =/= actually doing it.
We had support since last year if not sooner but at this point only the S10 actually record them (with serious problems when exporting to anything not able to decode it and display it).
Snapdragon 665 should've been called Snapdragon 666, as in 630->636

Those lithography numbers are little more than marketing at this point. Tech nerds like me know there's practically no difference between a 16nm wafer compared to a 12nm wafer. And that's true for 11nm wafer compared to a 8nm wafer. Heck, there's little improvements going from the 14nm-class to the 10nm-class of wafers. So comparing a 16nm wafer to a 8nm wafer is actually not a big improvement.... what is a big improvement is going from say 12nm wafer to 7nm wafer, that is a true die shrink and not a refresh (eg Intel's +++++++14nm).
The QSD 665 looks pretty weak, almost like Qualcomm is discontinuing it's low-end models (QSD 636 and QSD 660) and replacing them. Just like how the QSD 636 replaced the QSD 650 and QSD 652/653. Perhaps they're also finally killing the QSD 625 and the budget/entry-model and officially stepping to the QSD 632 instead.
On the other hand, the new QSD 730 looks good. A solid update over the QSD 710/712 in terms of power and efficiency. And a SoC that's as fast as people require, besides flagship performance for heavy-load stuff. If it comes in the new Google Pixel 3a, with the optimisations and efficient Stock ROM, it will feel smoother than other phones with flagship SoC's (eg PocoPhone, LG G7, P20 Pro, etc etc).
Snapdragon 666 could have been real beast if it was made.
Qualcomm upper midranges 7xx can record 4K HDR and Apple's A13 cannot.
And no, smart HDR is not same HDR for videos.
