Qualcomm has announced a new processor Snapdragon Wear 2100 chip for wearables. It will solve some of the main problems on the wearables like Battery life and thickness.
Snapdragon Wear 2100 is 25% more power efficient and 30% smaller in size than the Snapdragon 400 which is mostly used in Smartwatches. Snapdragon Wear 400Â features integrated ultra-low power sensor hub, which will help with greater tracking accuracy over the Snapdragon 400. It also features a new 4G LTE modem with integrated GNSS, along with low power Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
