Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8930 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 APQ8026 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8227

Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8930

► remove from comparison Qualcomm S4 Plus MSM8930

The Qualcomm MSM8930 (Snapdragon S4 Plus series) is an ARM based high-end smartphone SoC in 2012. It contains two Krait (ARMv7) CPU cores at up to 1.2 GHz, a Adreno 305 GPU, a single channel LPDDR2 memory controller and LTE radio elements.  The chip is produced in 28nm LP (low power process) at TSMC. Compared to the MSM8960, the 8930 is lower clocked, offers only a single channel memory controller, but has a faster GPU.

The Krait cores should offer a slightly better performance as the standard Cortex-A9 cores and are compatible to the NEON SIMD extensions.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 APQ8026

► remove from comparison Qualcomm 400 APQ8026

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 APQ8026 is an entry-level ARM-SoC for Android smartphones and smartwatches. It integrates four Cortex-A7 cores at up to 1.2 GHz (Quad-Core) and a Adreno 305 graphics card at 450 MHz. Furthermore, Bluetooth 4.0 is integrated in the SoC.

Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8227

► remove from comparison Qualcomm S4 Plus MSM8227

The Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8277 is a mid-range SoC for smartphones and tablets (mostly Android based). It contains two Krait (improved ARM Cortex-A9) CPU cores at 1.0 GHz and a Adreno 305 graphics card. A memory controller and radio elements (excluding LTE) are also included. The chip is produced in 28nm LP process at TSMC.
