The freshly announced Snapdragon 410 is, oddly enough, Qualcomms first 64-bit mobile processor. More importantly than that, however, its also the companys best-priced LTE chip to date, aiming to lower the cost of 4G-capable devices to below the $150 mark. Theres a clear focus on China and other emerging markets with the 410, which Qualcomm hopes to see driving LTE adoption outside the maturing North American and western European spheres. The Moto G has already shown the incumbent processor to be plenty powerful, so seeing it renewed with LTE on board will be exciting to frugal smartphone buyers everywhere.
