Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 packs 600Mbps LTE and smarter charging

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 hype train is getting to be a bit much (just ship the thing, already!), but you might want to take notice of the latest news if you’re big on data speeds — or simply want to charge your phone in a hurry. The company has revealed that its future system-on-a-chip will include the first processor to support super-fast 600Mbps LTE-Advanced, blowing past the 450Mbps record from before. It’ll upload at a brisk 150Mbps, too, and this chip is the first to support unlicensed LTE (aka LTE-U). Oh, and did we mention that it’ll allow for multi-gigabit 802.11ad WiFi? You probably won’t get to use much of this technology in the near term, but it’s good to have a ton of futureproofing.
