Overheating Issue of Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 Reportedly Fixed

It was reported last month that Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 had an overheating issue when it is working at peak frequencies. The issue was said to cause delay in shipment of devices depending on it. Qualcomm clearly denied the issue and said it’s a false report and everything is fine, and after that stayed tight lipped about the existence of the issue. It has now been reported that this issue has been finally fixed and the production of the chips will be ramped up next month.

Qualcomm also said that an important customer has turned down Snapdragon 810 and will not use the chip for its flagship. It was believed that they were talking about Samsung which is now using its Exynos processor for its Galaxy S6 but the company says it is a business decision not because of Snapdragon 810 overheating issue. However, there is still a good chance that Samsung Galaxy S6 might come with Snapdragon 810 but it will only be limited to few markets and most of the markets will receive Exynos powers Galaxy S6 devices.
