I am interested in qualcom processors. How much heat they produce when using 100% resource?

And also how much power they consume when idle and when working under heavy load ?

Heat temperature and power efficiency of qualcom processors

Hi, Karen! Indeed, a question like yours is a hot is a hot issue across oceans. I have dealt a lot of questions here at TechyV.com about smartphones, laptops, tablets, cameras and many more gadgets. This shows that competitions from companies are getting hotter and hotter every single month.

Qualcoms’s S4 processor is run by 2 more powerful Cortex A15-class Krait cores. These are also capable of scaling the processor’s clock speed like in Nvidia. It offers more power without consuming much energy making it energy efficient. Unlike Androids, S4 does not heat up a lot to cook you palms.

Because of its ability to scale down clock speed processor, overclocking is prevented thus keeping your phone cool even when you are playing games too much. Temperature could never reach above 35°C.

When the device is in idle mode, it can reduce power consumption up to almost nothing. Moreover, when it is in heavy load, power consumption is similar to Android phones.
