In addition to mobile phones and tablets, Qualcomm has also launched a dedicated processor product Snapdragon Wear for wearable devices such as smart watches, and the new generation of SW5100 has finally come out with new news, which will be built with a more advanced 4nm process. Generations of wearable device processors.
According to a report by the German website WinFuture, Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100 was originally intended to be produced using the 5nm process, but it has recently been upgraded to a more advanced 4nm process, which will bring better power performance and surpass the industry’s first 5nm process. Wearable product processor, Samsung Exynos W920.
Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100 will have two models, namely 5100 and 5100+, the former’s processor platform and power management chip will be packaged separately (MLP), and the latter will be integrated package (MEP), in addition to product design will be more flexible. In addition to being compact, the 5100+ will additionally support a deep sleep mode that saves more power, while the device can still stay connected to the phone, as well as fall detection.
However, although the process of Snapdragon Wear 5100 slightly surpasses Samsung Exynos W920, the architecture of 5100 is still maintained at ARM Cortex A53, which is the same as the previous generation 4100, while W920 adopts Cortex A55 architecture, which is more advanced in performance and power consumption. Qualcomm wants to rely on the process to improve performance and power consumption, but if compared with competing products, it may not bring much advantage.
The Snapdragon Wear 5100 will have a 1.7Ghz quad-core design, integrate a 700Mhz Adreno 702 GPU, support LPDDR4X and eMMC 5.1, support up to 4GB of memory, and even support two camera lenses (5MP and 16MP), and both have LTE connectivity. line capability.
