Qualcomm’s and Microsoft’s efforts to push the Windows 10 on ARM platform towards notebooks with Snapdragon chipsets mean that more powerful portable machines are going to be introduced in the near future. In simple terms, it means that the Snapdragon 835-powered notebooks that you’ve read about will eventually be replaced with devices that feature Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. According to a recent benchmarking leak, the Snapdragon 845 will be able to deliver up to 50 percent better performance.
A Lenovo-branded notebook was spotted on Geekbench (viewed by WinFuture first) running a Snapdragon 845. The chipset comprises up of an octa-core 4 x 2.80GHz Kryo 385 Gold and 4 x 1.70GHz Kryo 385 Silver but the maximum speed that we’ve seen in smartphones is 2.80GHz. If you check out the Geekbench benchmarking details, it shows that the device was running at a speed of 2.96GHz, or very close to 3GHz.
