It seems that Qualcomm is bringing the heat, and this time is targeting ARM with its latest SoC designs:

The next generation Quad-core Snapdragon is claimed to be more powerful than ARMs upcoming Cortex A15 design, scales to 2.5GHz @ 28nm, lower power (half at max), and available at the end of this year !

The source link has a bunch of data visualizations to help put the chips performance in perspective.

My question: CPU speed is one thing, but can the next-gen Adreno GPU keep up with the onslaught of incredibly performing mobile GPUs?
