Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus/400 (MSM8227/MSM8930)
Other Qualcomm chips from the S4 series; similar to the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus (MSM8960) and Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 (APQ8064).
The MSM8930 is branded as both the S4 Plus and the Snapdragon 400. There doesn't seem to be a notable difference between the two.
The MSM8227 is essentially a downclocked version of the MSM8930 that lacks HDMI support.
Variants
The names of these chips are quite simple. The second number stands for the modem: 0 for external, 2 for UMTS, 6 for UMTS + CDMA, and 9 for LTE. AA is an overclocked variant at 1.4GHz and AB is the "best shape" with the highest frequency (1.7GHz). Only overclocked variants of these chips are included in the Krait 300 series; the rest are in the Krait 200 series.
There are different variants of SoCs, according to socinfo:
- MSM8227
- MSM8227AA
- MSM8627
- MSM8627AA
- APQ8030
- APQ8030AA
- APQ8030AB

- MSM8230AB
- MSM8630
- MSM8630AA
- MSM8630AB
