Interesting. Any word on the 8180? That's what Qualcomm will use to replace the 850 in Win10 machines.

Interesting core configuration they are opting for this time, assuming the kyro golds are all A76s, they're being very aggressive with the clock speeds, especially when compared with Kirin 980 (middle cluster 2.41 vs 1.92 ghz), without further clarification/confirmation I'd almost say that the clock speed being quoted above is not for smartphone form factors and instead is for laptops...

8180 is meant for laptops. 8150 is for smartphone/phablet/tablet (might be 8180 for tablet).

I think this is why it's taking so long for FB to come out with the Oculus Quest. The current chip 845 isn't cutting it.
