Talk:Qualcomm Snapdragon

This processor is widely assumed to be vapourware, nobody has ever seen one to my knowledge and Qualcomm have been caught faking Snapdragon demonstration units in the past (IE: claiming a chipset that isn't snapdragon is, then when caught saying it was just supposed to give an idea of what snapdragon might look like)

Is it even notable enough for inclusion? Hideki (talk) 14:21, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

I believe that Qualcomm was demoing the Snapdragon at CES 2009, so there should be detailed reports about it in a day or two. In general, I think that a major planned chip of a major industry player is notable. Dimawik (talk) 15:07, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Snapdragon is definitely out and powering quite a number of Android phones now, among other devices. Radaghast (talk) 00:22, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

FPU

Do these CPUs have FPU or not? --217.195.52.165 (talk) 22:20, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Model Table

I'm glad to see that the table is working out for everybody. Glad I took the time to do it. Any thoughts on improvements to the table structure? What can we change the Instruction set to that would be a good measure of processing core performance over and above clock speed? DJTachyon (talk) 08:49, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

• It appears to me so full of "Utilizing Devices" that it turns the rest of the table rather sparse and overlong. Could use splitting out in a separate table perhaps; one with just the device model and the chip model. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.86.176.163 (talk) 20:55, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

"Wireless Technology" - clarification needed

Currently, this article's table features a column called "Wireless Technology". How is this to be interpreted? Are the entries meant to be understood as such that support for a particular technology in hardware is provided (e.g. HSUPA implemented in hardware)? --Abdull (talk) 10:14, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

MSM8250?

Is this Chipset really existing? I don't find any MSM8250-Chipset on the Qualcomm Website, so i think this is a mixing up with the old QSD8250, likely because almost all other older and newer Qualcomm chips are MSMs (e.g. MSM72xx, MSM8255). Microsoft says, the new HTC WP7-Devices like HTC 7 Mozart, 7 Surround, 7 Trophy and HD7 have the QSD8250.

This Wikipedia-Entry confusing many people all around the world (because of the WP7-Launch), so please can anyone fix it? I'm not sure enough the MSM8250 isn't really existing... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.74.50.151 (talk) 10:37, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Qualcomm Hexagon

Which Snapdragon SoC has Qualcomm Hexagon DSPs interegated into them? `a5b (talk) 17:18, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Proposed merge

I'm thinking that the article specifically on the Krait family should be merged with this article - as the content is already discussed here, it doesn't seem to merit its own page. I was going to just go ahead and redirect, but some consensus would be much better. Thanks. Noir (talk) 14:47, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Neither Krait (CPU) nor Scorpion (CPU) have any merit as separate articles. Redirected them here and removed wikilinks to them as to avoid self-redirects. --Dmitry _{(talk•contibs)} 16:33, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Sounds good to me, thanks. Noir (talk) 16:51, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Krait and Scorpion pages added back, added technological information that doesn't work well on this page. Removed merge template. User931 22:591, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

The one and same technical table you added to these respective pages can easily be placed in this article. Reverting.

I think we need more consensus on this before you do drastic changes like this, the page looks very messed up and this page is about the System on chip, not about specific CPU architecture. Reverting back. User931 23:35, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Please do not remove MSM8974 as it was referenced in the leaked roadmap, just like most other current and upcoming S4 processors which aren't even listed on Qualcomm's website. --Dmitry _{(talk•contibs)} 19:19, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

All current and upcoming S4 SoCs are listen on Qualcomms website, you just haven't taken a good look. https://developer.qualcomm.com/sites/default/files/snapdragon-specs.pdf The MSM8974 is not listed because it has been cancled. Reverting. User931 23:35, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

No, the MSM8974 has NOT BEEN CANCELLED. The document that you refer to lists what is currently available to OEMs. You need to provide a reference that states explicitly that it has been canceled. The fact that it is not on that list does not say anything. In a few short months or weeks, you will see the announcement of the MSM8974.
