This one follows the Snapdragon Wear 2500 and it’s expected to be more powerful than ever. While the SW 2500 means Qualcomm betting on 4G kids watches, the SW 3100 is expected to be used on more fashion smartwatches like those from Montblanc, Louis Vuitton, and the Fossil Group.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear 3100 offers support for ultra-low power system architecture. This means even the budget- and entry-level smartwatches can run on impressive wearable performance. Qualcomm teamed up with Google to bring more customized experiences, extended battery life, and feature-rich interactive mode.
