Qualcomm has two 10nm Snapdragons

We already expected a Snapdragon 823 which would be a faster version of MSM98996, better known as Snapdragon 820. Now the recent leak indicates that there might be a 828 and 830 coming later this year using the 10nm FinFET process.

The source claims that the 10nm FInFET has Kryo 200 cores, which would be a big improvement on the Kryo 100 cores. The new 10nm will bring the power down and decrease the size of transistors. It Is not certain how many cores Qualcomm plans to use. Snapdragon 830 is being internally branded as MSM 8998 and the new SoC should come with the Adreno 540 which is an improved GPU. We have high hopes from the Adreno 540 but we are lacking necessary details to make a better prediction.
