Is there anyway we can test the performance?

Last time I tested the performance was fairly good.
We'll need a Snapdragon 808/810 dev board now to get any real performance benchmarks out of it.

Is it even possible to install these drivers on android? It looks like it would be a huge benefit for power users. Although tbh real power users aren't using snapdragon based devices.

It has been built for Android, but there are a lot of issues towards getting there.

I am a real power user and love my lg g4 which is based on the sanpdragon 808 with the adreno 418

You're doing real power user wrong then. Unless you think the only requirement is a microsd slot and a removable battery

Well i cant stand samsung and snapdragon 808 and 810 are the most power snapdragon socs out right now. And yes i do plan on getting a nvidia android tv because it is the most powerful android device to date. I am a power user. I believe our defintion of a power user may be a little different though.
