Nexus 7 different SoC? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hello everyone!
So recently I got my tablet back from repair (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700426), the report says that motherboard was replaced. The thing that bothers me, is that after repair I've installed the CPU-Z app, only to find that my nexus has a snapdragon 600 SoC. Maybe I'm mistaken but I'm pretty much sure that nexus 7 (2013) comes with a s4 pro SoC. Can someone with a N7 2013 install CPU-Z and check it? I wanted to flash Lollipop preview, but if the SoC is different, I'm afraid of bricking it. Thanks in advance.

Says snapdragon 600 here.

Snapdragon 600 is branded as a S4 Pro, aka APQ8064–*...it's the same thing.

Snapdragon 600 here RAZORG (LTE)

[Q] Flash ROM

I am new to Galaxy devices. I have switched from nexus 5 to the note 3 and I am curious if I could flash nexus 5 stock rom on my note 3. I have noticed that they both have Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor. Will that brick my device or is it possible?

Please don't do this. It will be bad. This is definitely not possible, most likely at all ever but if nothing else at least in the straight-forward-just-flash-it sense that you are describing.
WOW....

AFAIK all the Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 only has Exynos, only the 10.1 Tab 3 is using Intel Atom CPU.

nope,but in my opinion the exynos version is better because it has armv7 architecture "which is able to run many apps and games"unlike the atom version(for examble galaxy tab 3 10.1)which i already have"it has X86 architecture and i can't even install mods or play intense 3d games or run adobe flash player"
advice:go for the exynos version if you want to run many apps and games and never buy atom tablet unless you arehahaha.
Thank you!

Buy G3 with 801 processor or wait for 805?

I was thinking to buy LG G3 32GB with 3 GB ram but now I heard that there is going to be a version with snapdragon 805.
Is it worth to wait? I am placed in front of a dilemma - Please help.
What do you think? Are you going to wait for the new version or not?
There might not even be an 805 variant. If there is, it might not even be for your region.

This question pops up every time a new device comes out, whether it's a different manufacturer or an updated model.
If there is an 805 model coming soon, by the time it arrives, you'll be wondering about the G4 as that will be in the rumour mill. Next comes the G4 Prime, G5.....
If you want the device, buy it. You can always sell it if you really want the new version If and When.

The issue is that you're sacrificing performance to use that QHD display. To get the performance we're used to in a snapdragon 800/1080p setup, we need the Snapdragon 805 to get the same level of performance with a 2K display
I don't mind using a Korean model. I will wait for the 805 variant. There's supposedly some model numbers that have been leaked that suggest an 805 is coming. But you know how far mobile rumors are, so it could go either way. The 'S5 Prime' came out 2 months after the S5. I can wait 2 more months for the 805 variant of the G3

Well firstly, the Adreno 330 fully supports 2160p, it's being used in some UltraD TV's running at 4K. The Adreno 420 is going to offer improvements, but then so is the 808 and the 810...etc. That's the point, why not wait for the 64bit Snapdragon 810
The Galaxy F/S5 prime is still a rumour. There's still no official announcement, let alone a release date.
You could wait 2 months, but there are no guarantees that it will be available by then, if at all. Maybe you could wait 4 months. By then I could have sold my G3 and be ready to purchase the next big thing.

the S5 Prime is already released in Korea. it's using the Galaxy S5 LTE-A name. QHD screen, 3 GB ram, 805 snapdragon

I didn't know the LTE-A was so much of an upgrade, and in all fairness that's not the rumoured Galaxy F/ Prime, which has different build materials. The LTE-A just looks like a 'rushed out of the door' job so they can say they released a QHD model at the same time as LG

I have the exynos model, but I feel that it's a bit laggy compared to my galaxy s5 which is snapdragon.

I thought every single Galaxy Tab S tablets(both 8 and 10 inch as well as the LTE variants) have the Exynos chipset. I wasn't aware of any Galaxy Tab S tablet that had the Snapdragon SoC

Exynos or Snapdragon galaxy tab pro 8.4

Hi all!
I am considering replacing my Lg g pad 8.3 for the tab pro. The thing is that I have found two variants, one with the Exynos chip and the other with the Snapdragon. Which one should I go for? I enjoy playing intensive graphics games.
Thanks in advance!

The Tab Pro 8.4 always uses the S800. that being said, get the Tab Pro 8.4.

I saw it listed with an Exynos processor, it must have been an error from the seller. I am already enjoying my new Tab pro, so far loving it! Thanks for the reply

I may be misremembering so please do not take this as gospel, but I believe there is an LTE version of the Tab Pro 8.4 that uses the Exynos processor.

actually, it isn't like that. there's LTE models of the Exynos tablets (Tab S 8.4/10.5, Tab Pro 10.1/12.2) that have Qualcomm chips.

And that's why I said I might be mistaken....which I was.
Looks like that screen capture of that ad is 'mixing' the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 with the Galaxy Tab S 8.4. I've done some more research (which I should have done before I opened my mouth, but I was tired and in a hurry) and it doesn't look like any version of the Tab Pro 8.4 comes with an Exynos processor. Only the WiFi versions of the tablets you mention above come equipped with Exynos processors.
Hope this clears everything up for the OP. Sorry for muddying the waters.
What's actually in this thing?

So I have the version that claims to be the Exynos 5420, and I'm wondering as to how the cores work. They claim that it can operate all 8 processors is at once, but cpu-z says that I've got the cluster switch style. It also says that the lower power a7 cores are clocked all the way up to 1.9 gigahertz. That is different than the marketing, which claims only 1.4 gigahertz I believe. Is CPU Z just confused you think? Or do you think the implementation is different in practice
