Moore's law states that computing power doubles every 18 months.
Most powerful mobile SoC currently available is the Snapdragon 800, capable of 130 GFLOPS.
6 years into the future, the most powerful mobile SoC is therefore estimated to be capable of 2080 GFLOPS, surpassing the processing power of both the Xbox One and PS4.
10 years into the future, at the end of the 8th generation, the most powerful mobile SoC will be capable of 16640 GFLOPS, 9 times more powerful than the PS4 and 13 times more powerful than the Xbox One.
