The Processor is a key element in determining the speed at which smartphones operate, the faster the processor the more efficiently the phone will operate. Processors are commonly referred to as SoC "System on a Chip" because they have a multitude of features that make finding a single processor that's the fastest of them all hard.
There a have been some recent introductions of next-gen smartphone processors into the market by microchip bigwigs like Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm.
A fast phone means an easier frustration free life, or would you prefer a phone that takes forever to load apps? of course not. I know you are a speed freak at heart because if you weren't then you wouldn't be reading this post.
That's the reason I wrote this post, to bring you a list of the fastest phones around for you to engage your speed-thrill. This list is in no particular order, its a list of the fastest smartphone processors in the market and smartphones currently in the market fitted with these processors.
Without further ado, let's dive into the list, shall we?
