And practically the A13 is just 5% faster than the A12, efficiency gains are small.

i could see why Apple is confident about making the switch to their processors instead of using intel's in their macbook line ups.

[deleted post]Multitasking is not that good on iOS but it's definitely the more optimised OS. It matches Android One (or stock) experience.
Unless you're coming from a $200 realme with many features but laggy and buggy UI.

The Snapdragon 865 and the 865+ still have a faster AI processor on board, because it's rated at 15 trillion operations per second compared to the A14's 11 trillion operations per second.

That doesn't make any sense, because your statement is very very wrong. Specs do matter, ofcourse, how can one even say that they're 'meaningless' ? Going by your logic, a phone can have a processor and other specs from a decade ago and still be smooth because the "hardware and software works well together" and specs are just meaningless. Your statements are out of my understanding, man. Try using a Galaxy S1 and then an S10 and you'll see how much the specs matter

Because hardware works well together with software. Which unfortunately can't be said for a lot of Android phones that are all specs and then vendor just kinda forgets after 2 years that you bought a phone for almost 1000€ and stops giving you software updates...

I can assure you that majority of android buyers, especially those vocal on the Internet, care about numbers instead of true performance for arguments sake. That's why Android oems and Apple present their products differently.

ThunderCrackR, 15 Sep 2020"This is the first chipset built on the 5nm process, outdoing Android competition."
... moreDon't worry, it's all a long term plan, if it goes one way it returns in another form
so it will definitely return soon with RISCV and SMIC fab
Fuchsia and Harmony already support RISCV

Anonymous, 15 Sep 2020If GPU just 8% improvement. They will again lose to 5nm SD875.Lmao. Did Qualcomm ever win against Apple chipset? Never. And it’s not going to be any soon.

MaikyMoto, 15 Sep 2020No 120Hz means Apple takes an Li don't not understand the bitching here?? it's not like the tabS6 had 120hz or even 90, and further more the iPad pros had 120hz panels 3 years before Samsung.

Anonymous, 15 Sep 2020It's better than any Android tablet on the market. Cheaper too than S7 series. How's it better? Can I play my xbox games on the go? Can I play google stadia? Can I run citra or dolphin without crappy unreliable hacks? Does it have 5g support for future proofing? And why are they comparing this chipset to a 2 year old one instead of last year's? Is it cuz the pathetic incremental upgrade that's almost single digits? How is this better than a s7 tab......?

"This is the first chipset built on the 5nm process, outdoing Android competition."
If it wasn't for a clown with yellow cream as his hair, some other, China-based, company would have already unveiled its 5nm Kirin, as they did a year ago with their 7nm one.. And this is how you destroy competition and maintain your 'we innovate' aura... Sad situation for the industry as a whole.
