Anyone still have any hope it'll get a Snapdragon 800??

Sure would be fun if you could build your own smartphone with the latest components like I have with my gaming rigs. But, there is always custom ROMs and overclocking...BTW, my stock S3 is the sweetest smartphone I've used (for business), but bring on the S4!

What you mean seem like Octa isnt a good chip? Havent you seen the performance of the Tegra 4 CPU, the Octa has exactly the same 4 A15 cores inside and the T4 obliterated the 600.

The results form the benchmarks are out and the difference between the octa and 600 is negligible at least in performance. The benchmarks on the tegra 4 were amazing but the s600 and octa aren't even close. Battery life still believe it or not still belongs to Qualcomm.
I just can't wait for the s800 but I'm debating whether or not to get the htc One or wait for the s800

Snapdragon 800 is starting production in May and no devices have been announced for that SoC yet. So maybe the GN3, maybe nothing from Sammy this year.

Android OS and apps aren't anywhere near being able to use beyond two cores so it really doesn't matter. The higher powered procs just suck up extra battery.

What about GPU? Definitely S800 would be better than S600

I was pretty bummed when I saw HTC One has a Snapdragon 600...especially with that Adreno 320 GPU which will be behind the times before it's even released.

...then I saw the ZTE Grand Memo (what?) just announced with a Snapdragon 800...who knows when that thing will ship...but it gave me back a little hope that Samsung could use it's muscle to get the first/early shipments from Qualcomm??

Just a prayer at this point, though...but still hopeful! Anyone else clinging to hope??

Lucky for you Galaxy S4 lte advanced is coming with snapdragon 800
