The first difference with the former would would happen to a process fabricaciónd and 14 nm, meaning it is smaller and consume less energy to generate at least the same performance.

This Snapdragon 820 would be also an octa-core with eight high-performance cores TS2, which would mean that it would abandon the Krait cores to provide a self invoice menso six months, when according to the leaked documents reach the first devices with this chip, and dates could be one of them the Samsung Galaxy Note 5, as this year’s Galaxy Note 4 launched with Snapdragon 805 instead of 801.
