Well, let’s get back to Qualcomm’s new platform as it’s going to be the biggest selling point of the watch. Compared with its predecessor, the Snapdragon W5 brings three major upgrades:

  1. ultra-low power consumption, which extends the battery life;
  2. breakthrough performance that should improve user experience;
  3. compact packaging, making the device thinner and lighter.

The large core and coprocessor use 4nm and 22nm processes, respectively. This is a significant upgrade in comparison to the previous generation of 12nm+28nm. The large core is responsible for 5% of the interaction time. It supports Wear OS, AOSP operating systems, and supports Android applications. As for the coprocessor, it is responsible for 95% of the interaction time. It is oriented to the FreeRTOS system and integrates the M55 CPU core, 2.5D GPU, display, audio, and other components to maintain the daily operation of the device.
