Hi All,
What is the difference between ARM cortex-A and cores in snapdragon from Qualcomm? I know that they say it is compatible with ARMv7/8 ISA.

Qualcomm using ARM Core to make a soc named snapdragon
Hello Nitin,
the differences are performance and power consumption.
In ARMv7-A era, Qualcomm developed their exclusive core compatible to ARMv7-A as Qualcomm has the architecture license.
In ARMv8-A era, Qualcomm is currently using the original ARM core but are developing their exclusive core for the next generation.
