Snapdragon 810 in the One (M9)

Qualcomm's latest and greatest mobile SoC, the Snapdragon 810 hasn’t been getting a lot of love lately. Whether it was the whole overheating fiasco or Samsung's recent rapid development in terms of manufacturing technology and in-house Exynos capabilities if is a fact that Qualcomm is lagging slightly behind. So far we have only seen LG's latest flagship - the LG G Flex 2 powered by the beastly processor, but things might be looking up as Qualcomm has released a rather interesting teaser on Twitter.

 "It’s almost time for a new #Snapdragon 810 powered smartphone. #MWC15" and is accompanied by a rather inconspicuous vine video. In the short clip we see a rough outline of a phone which resembles recent renders of the HTC One (M9). The clip also features a few clock style numbers which also point in the direction of HTC's upcoming flagship. The video begins with a clock showing 8:10, a direct reference to the Snapdragon chip. After that it switches to 10:08, which ticks forward to 10:09. This definitely reminds of a transition from the One (M8) to the new One (M9).
