Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100+ vs Samsung Exynos 9110 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1

Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100+

The Snapdragon Wear 4100+ is a platform for smartwatches. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 at up to 1.7 GHz, An Adreno 504 GPU and a 750 MHz DDR3L memory controller. Furthermore, the QCC1110 AON co-processor (ARM Cortex-M0) can be used for always-on functionality. Without the QCC1110, the platform is only called Snapdragon Wear 4100.

According to Qualcomm, the Wear 4100 offers a 85% higher CPU and memory performance and the integrated GPU is 2.5x faster than the older Wear 3100.

the Snapdragon Wear 4100 is manufactured in 12nm, compared to the 28nm produced Wear 3100.

Samsung Exynos 9110

The Samsung Exynos 9110 is a dual-core ARM based SoC for IoT (Internet of Things) devices like smartwatches. It was announced in 2018 and integrates two ARM Cortex A53 cores clocked at 1.15 GHz. It is manufactured in the 10LPP process at Samsung. The integrated ARM Mali-T720 GPU uses only one cluster (MP1) according to WikiChip.

Qualcomm Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1

The Qualcomm Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 (or W5 Plus Gen 1) is a SoC for smartwatches and fitness trackers in the Wear series. It integrates a CPU with four ARM Cortex A53 cores and up to 1.7 GHz, an Adreno 702 GPU with up to 1GHz, a single channel (1x16) LPDDR4 2133 MHz memory controller, Bluetooth 5.3, WLAN 802.11n (2.4 and 5 GHz) and an LTE modem (Rel 13 with Cat1 support). The SoC (SW5100) is manufactured using a modern 4nm process. In contrast to the W5 (non Plus), the W5+ integrate an additional Always-On-Chip in 22nm (QCC5100 with a 250 MHz Cortex-M55 CPU).
