Soeben erreicht mich eine Pressemitteilung von Qualcomm, in der man die mobilen Prozessoren der nächste Generation Snapdragon 810 und 808 offiziell ankündigt.
Die Snapdragon-Prozessoren 810 und 808 bilden derzeit die leistungsstärkste Plattform von Qualcomm Technologies und komplettieren das Angebot der 64-Bit-fähigen LTE-Chipsätze für mobile Endgeräte der Premiumklasse. Kombiniert werden in den neuen Modellen LPDDR4, ARM Cortex-A57 CPUs und Cortex-A53 CPUs, denen die Adreno 430 GPU zur Seite steht. Die Quad-Core-Chipsätze kommen mit einer ganzen Reihe von Befehlssätzen und Funktionen daher, die in aktuellen Oberklasse-Geräten verbaute Hardware optimal ausnutzen sollen. Dazu gehören umfangreiche 4K-Unterstützung, Highspeed-Aufnahmen in 1080p-Auflösung, 2560×1600-Displays, Bildsensoren bis 55 Megapixel und einiges mehr. Weitere Details zum Snapdragon 810 und 808 finden sich in Kürze unter qualcomm.com/snapdragon.
The Snapdragon 810 processor, as Qualcomm Technologies‘ highest performing Snapdragon platform to date, also supports:
- Rich native 4K Ultra HD interface and video, along with an upgraded camera suite using gyro-stabilization and 3D noise reduction for producing high quality 4K video at 30 frames per second and 1080p video at 120 frames per second. The combined 14-bit dual Image Signal Processors (ISPs) are capable of supporting 1.2GP/s throughput and image sensors up to 55MP. Advanced imaging software helps enable advanced mobile camera features, including enhanced exposure, white balance and fast low light focus.
- The combined 64-bit quad core ARM Cortex-A57 CPUs and Cortex-A53 CPUs are designed to enable an improved user experience based on the advanced technology feature set, while implementation of the new ARMv8-A ISA enables improved instruction set efficiency.
- Designed for 4K displays, the new Qualcomm® Adreno™ 430 graphics processing unit (GPU) provides support for OpenGL ES 3.1 plus hardware tessellation, geometry shaders and programmable blending. The Adreno 430 is designed to deliver up to 30% faster graphics performance and 100% faster GPGPU compute performance, while reducing power consumption by up to 20%, as compared to its predecessor, the Adreno 420 GPU. The Adreno 430 GPU also enables a new level of GPU security for secure composition and management of premium video and other multimedia.
- The Snapdragon 810 processor introduces high speed LPDDR4 memory.
- Frame buffer compression and external 4K display support via HDMI1.4.
- First mobile platform to implement Qualcomm® VIVE™ 2-stream 802.11ac with multi-user MIMO, which makes Wi-Fi® networks more efficient than ever in order to maximize the performance of local connectivity for mobile devices.
- Support for Bluetooth® 4.1, USB 3.0, NFC and the latest Qualcomm® IZat™ location core for ubiquitous and highly accurate location services.
The Snapdragon 808 processor is designed for premium performance and integrates the same LTE-Advanced, RF360 and Wi-Fi connectivity as the Snapdragon 810 processor and includes 2K display support. Both chipsets are fully software compatible with the 64-bit ARMv8-A instruction set. The primary differences of the Snapdragon 808 processor include:
- Designed for WQXGA (2560×1600) displays, the new Adreno 418 GPU provides support for OpenGL ES 3.1 plus hardware tessellation, geometry shaders, programmable blending. It is designed to support up to 20% faster graphics performance than its predecessor, the Adreno 330 GPU. The Adreno 418 GPU also enables a new level of GPU security for secure composition and management of premium video and other multimedia.
- Configured with two ARM Cortex-A57 cores paired with a quad Cortex-A53 CPU.
- 12-bit dual Image Signal Processors.
- LPDDR3 memory.
- Frame buffer compression and external 4K display support via HDMI1.4.
