Jules Wang

Last year, Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 700-series SoCs to address a developing market segment that some have called "Premium B" to cope with the ongoing phenomenon of flagship cost runaway. The company later appended an offshoot skew in the 730G for the burgeoning gaming phone sector which presses value and performance to extremes.

Google boasts that over 350 apps and games are included with the monthly subscription service, though so far we've only been able to catalog around 250 or so.
