Gizchina News of the week
Although demo units were at hand at the Beijing press conference testers were banned from trying out benchmarking software, but judging from the updated Krait 400 architecture, Ardreno 330 graphics and FlexRender technology the new chip should be capable of something spectacular! Infact Qualcomm themselves have announced the 800 could be clocked at 2.3Ghz and capable of 30fps 4K playback!
More updates when the chip officially launches later this year!
