The score sheet was posted on Weibo account by the leakster but it doesn’t confirm the authenticity of the score as he claims that Snapdragon 8150 comes with unusual core configuration 1+3+4 which means 1-high performance, 4-medium performance, and 4-energy efficient cores, this report contradicts earlier reports about the new Snapdragon.
