ARM’s bigLITTLE architecture. It has two big ARM Cortex-A77 cores and six
little Cortex-A55 cores, operating at a peak frequency of up to 2GHz. The CPU
is paired with Adreno 619L graphic processing unit (GPU), which is up to 60 per
cent faster than the GPU in its predecessor, the Snapdragon 675 – according to
Qualcomm. The Snapdragon 690 supports a maximum of 8GB RAM -- 2 x 16-bit
LPDDR4X memory at up to 1866MHz.
