Snapdragon's 821 is 10% faster than SD 820.

Probably similar to how SSDs were getting much worse battery times on laptops when they first came out.  They were allowing the system to actually do more work, since it wasn't waiting for the HDD as much.  Perhaps this has a similar yet opposite effect, allowing the CPU to work harder, but for less time, causing a net increase in battery life/efficiency.

this is what Intel has been doing for years. Focusing on the Race To Sleep. The faster the processor is,(generally) the faster it can go to sleep and thus in light workloads it can consume far less power. However in heavier workloads it would consume far more power.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.
