The re-named Snapdragon 620 SoC powers the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 4 as the Snapdragon 652

Just a few days ago, Qualcomm renamed the Snapdragon 618 and Snapdragon 620 chipsets. The new numbers are the Snapdragon 650 and Snapdragon 652, respectively. Why do this? Qualcomm said it wanted to differentiate the Snapdragon 618 and 620 from the Snapdragon 615, 616 and 617 chipsets.

While it wouldn't be the first handset to be powered by the Snapdragon 620, the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 4 might be the first to have the chipset with its new naming scheme under the hood. The Alcatel handset (TCL 6070) recently made a trip through the GFXBench benchmark test, revealing that the phone will sport a 5.5-inch display with  a 1080 x 1920 resolution. The Snapdragon 620 652 chipset contains an octa-core 1.8GHz CPU and the Adreno 510 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside, along with 16GB of native memory. The Alcatel OneTouch Idol 4 features a rear-facing 16MP camera, and an 8MP snapper can be found on front to take selfies and handle video chats.

The OneTouch Idol 4 managed to produce a 5.4 fps frame rate on the Car Chase offline test. That just beat out the recently unveiled Yu Yutopia,  LG G Flex 2, HTC One M9 and Sony Xperia Z3 +. Those phones scored anywhere from 5.1 fps to just under the OneTouch Idol 4's 5.4 fps rate.
