The Snapdragon 820 will be manufactured by Samsung, using the new 14nm LPP process, and is likely to be used by multiple flagship devices available in the first half of 2016. The news comes after a challenging 2015 for Qualcomm, who saw its Snapdragon 810 processor fall short of the company's reputation for class-leading performance in the Android space.
