14nm, available in 2H 2016

Qualcomm has finally launched what it thinks will be the next milestone in the LTE modem speed – a Gigabit Class LTE Chipset with download speeds of up to 1 Gbps.

One stop solution for greatness

Qualcomm and a few top managers have been underlining the importances of SoC integration – Snapdragon 820 has top WiFi, top LTE, top GPU, quite powerful DSP and custom cores.

The rumours might be half true

Broadband changes

Chipzilla has come up with technologies which it believes will give broadband a kick up the back-end.

One chip strategy

Samsung's new-model AP 'Exynos 7420,' which applied 14 nano FinFET is continuing the outfit's one chip plans by putting the modem and AP together.

San Diego born and raised

Samsung's Exynos 7240 is a little miracle, and being the first mobile 14nm SoC in the market has its own benefits.
