Some info on the new Snapdragon 835 mobile SoC for high-end 2017 smart-phones just surfaced online, the new chip will get Kryo 280 cores at 2.45GHz Max. The SoC will get eight of these of which four can run at a max 2.45 GHz.

Interesting is also that the SoC will get a gigabit model. Back in November, Qualcomm pre-announced a few general specs for the 835 and detailed the benefits of a die shrink to 10nm. Namely, there would be a 27% performance improvement and up to 40% less power consumption compared to the previous version. The 30% increase in area efficiency obviously also allows for thinner phones and more room for other components.

The four Kryo 280-cores will get 2MB L2-cache, the four slower ones will run a maximum of 1.9 GHz tied towards 1 MB L2 cache. The graphics is provided by an Adreno 540 which promises to be 25% faster opposed to the older 530 revision. The new GPU would be capable of 10bits 4k-video / 60 fps and 10bits hevc 4k.
