Re: They need it badly
64 but with custom ARM design this time should see it back on par with the normal quality/increment jump for a major realease. If performance/heat is back on track and the new feature sets work as described, it should ship a *lot* more than the 810. I'm basing this on the new features I read about on XDA: http://www.xda-developers.com/snapdragon-820-debut-qualcomms-comeback-packs-a-big-punch/
Although a lot of that is incidental to me, and I'm surprised it doesn't mention the more interesting "smart protect" behavioural analysis chip-level anti malware. I use Nexus for the sake of reasonable prompt security updates (Nov 1st updates arrived on the 11th OTA, still seems like 10 days too long), and wish the new Nexuses (nexii?) could have caught the 820, as then I'd have the combo of regular patches as well as real time behavioural analysis to catch new threats.
