Google and Qualcomm have been working on this for over a year. We already knew Qualcomm was set to finally release a new chip for Wear OS devices. It appears these devices will be getting the new chip and it will be called the Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 3100.
The Snapdragon 3100 is the new variant of the Snapdragon 2100. It rumors to feature a quad-core CPU with an unknown clock rate. Qualcomm might use the ARM Cortex-A7 architecture and Adreno 304 GPU in this chip. Although, manufacturing remains on the 28nm process.
