It's no longer hard to find 64-bit processors in smartphones (http://www.engadget.com/2014/02/23/mediatek-mt6732/). In smartwatches, though, they're still a rarity -- and ARM wants to change that with its newCortex-A35 (https://www.arm.com/about/newsroom/new-arm-cortex-a35-processor-extends-armv8-a-architecture-deeper-into-mobile-and-embedded-markets.php) processor design. The architecture promises the most energy-efficient 64-bit mobile chips yet, sipping 32 percent less power than the mid-range A53 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/30/arm-cortex-a50/) even as it outruns the Cortex-A7 it's meant to replace (6 to 40 percent faster). It's extremely scalable, too. You can build full-fledged quad-core chips for entry-level smartphones, but you can also strip things back to make tiny chips for watches and activity trackers.
