Di Qualcomm processors of the 6xx series are really an infinity. But this is certainly not a good reason to ensure that the SoC par excellence company interrupts its development and research work. In fact, it is only a few minutes from Qualcomm's announcement of the realization of the Snapdragon 636 processor, more powerful than a good 40% compared to the Snapdragon 630.
Let's get started right here. With the Snapdragon 636, Qualcomm has set itself the goal it has already achieved with the 660 SD: increase the mid-range bar. And with SD 636 pushes even more "the medium range upwards".
Yes, excuse the word games ... but if we used to think about it before Qualcomm series 600 as with a mid range range with average performance without excitement at all, now - but already since the launch of SD 660 - the 600 series becomes something of more than a trivial mid-range class.
Just look Xiaomi Mi Note 3 to see the excellent work done by Qualcomm.
Made this indispensable premise, let's go back to the Snapdragon 636, a processor that has definitely defied the hopes of seeing the 635 rise. Among the basic features of the newborn processor, in addition to the performance increase of a 40% compared to SD 630, compatibility with FHD + display that is those ultra-wide displays from the size ratio 18:9.
The considerations here are not spared and in fact the idea of finding an SD 636 on a top device with 18 display: 9 is definitely not to be excluded. That said, however, compatibility with the display is not the only novelty introduced.
Made with 8 core Kryo 260, with a maximum clock of 1.8 GHz, Snapdragon 636 is characterized by having the same structure as SD 660 but at a lower frequency: energy saving promised will be a further 40% compared to the Qualcomm initiator of the new series, the Snapdragon 630.
It's not all! The SD 636, in fact, will be compatible with the 'Assertive Display in order to optimize visibility under any light conditions and with the Adreno GPU 509, more powerful than the 10% compared to all previous versions.
As you have noticed from the two post images, then the newborn CPU will also take full advantage of VoLTE HD, Bluetooth 5.0 and modem 4G LTE X12, which promises to push download and upload speeds up to 600 and 150 Mbps, respectively. It's not over yet! Because SD 636 will also support the Quick Charge 4.0.
Can we expect a Redmi Notes with Snapdragon 636 by the end of the year?
The answer to this question is "nì".
I try to explain it better. The shipments of these new CPUs will start at November and hardly a smartphone maker could realize a device at the end of the year already optimized for this kind of processor. In fact some rumors would suggest that Xiaomi would already have in his hand new Redmi Notes to animate with this processor just released on the market by Qualcomm.
The story, however, is almost never black or white but often the truth is in the middle: it is probably true that Xiaomi is designing the new Notes Redmi, as it is plausible that these devices can be new redmi 5 e Redmi 5 Plus, but at the time hypothesizing that they can mount the SD 636 is pure imagination.
