Krait CPU's are great at idling and doing very little.  But the top end efficiency is complete garbage,  with the CPU's using a ton more power and generating more heat than the competition.  The Snapdragon 800 especially was known for throttling and only capable of burst work because of rampant heat generation (prior to android 5.1 Qualcomm actually had 2 cores disabled in their governor to cheat heat generation.  The Adreno series isn't so bad but they favor ALU heavily which is odd because most mobile apps/games love fill rate (especially apps with iOS versions).  Performance wise they are competitive parts,  but bad drivers and Qualcomm's extreme secrecy on architecture details means developers are often optimizing blind. From my experience Qualcomm is acceptable for casual users,  but any halfway power user should avoid them like the plague.
