Can you upgrade the Note 4 processor with a newer one like a Note 10?

[Android Central Question]

Wanting to really change the processor to a newer one, not wanting to get rid of my phone.

In short - no.

Phones are not like computers with a socketed chip, the chip is soldered to the PCB, and even if you had the tools to remove the chip cleanly any newer chip would have different pinouts.
