    Even Snapdragon 865 destroys overrated M1 from Apple with 15 TOPS.
    This one is almost 2.5x times powerful.

      Personally I think that all these ''spec wars'' have become pointless. Better to research better battery technologies that will actually benefit all users on any platform.

          Boggy-Stefy, 01 Dec 2020Even without cheating the scores, the smartphones nowadays are very smooth and powerful. My ... moreAm using a phone with SD 720G and for everyday use, it's snappy enough that you don't be bothered that it's not flagship level. If you don't play super high end games, you don't edit 4K60fps videos, you won't really feel like you are not using the best. It's only obvious if you have a SD 865 side by side to compare.

                Massive upgrades looking very good, hopefully 2021 flagships wont go between $1500-$2000.

                  Abhi Dahiya, 01 Dec 2020As Qualcomm mentioned itself, 8 is one of the luckiest number in Indian and Chinese culture. H... moreI also watched the livestream and if I remember correctly, they said that the number 8 for many years signified their top tier premium SoC, so because of the said huge leap in performance the decided to go all 8(SD888)!

                  *They also mentioned that even the 4XX series will get 5G!

                    If the phone is built correctly (software and hardware), you don't need the best phone the market has to offer.

                              Anonymous, 01 Dec 2020Next SoC will be called 988, then 1088 , then 1188, then 1288... Oh, I rather stop there.I'm sure they will change the naming somewhere to not miss the "1080" as apparently everyone want this number 🤣

                                      Sounds good and all but how much is this gonna set us back? If the 888 is a really big improvement over the price hiked 865, are we talking at least $150?
