    Long way to go if we are gonna have glasses with virtual keyboards but it's a start.

    Hopefully they announce this now because they have bigger news at MWC. They got to show us the big core aimed at 7nm and ARM must be under pressure to deliver a bigger core (maybe even an entire mm!2 lol). Even in mobile their partners need more since Samsung leaped ahead this year and ofc server needs to start pushing next year.

    While I'm not saying you are wrong, you very well could be right. I'm withholding judgement on Samsung's Mongoose 3 core until we have actual devices...it is very wide, but it's proportionally bigger than A75 as Mongoose 2 was to A73 and we know how that went.. sometimes better performance but not always, but always higher energy consumption. Personally I enjoy sustainable performance for my use cases. However I hope Mongoose 3 is everything it is hyped to be, I really do!

    https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/6974531
    Single-Core Score 3717
    Crypto Score 1915
    Integer Score 3735
    Floating Point Score 3440
    Memory Score 4543

    Integer and FP added up are about 2x vs Exynos 8895 so they deliver on their 2x claim, in Geekbench at least.
    If they do it with 1 core turbo at 5W , remains to be seen but they do get there somehow.
    Oh and I was not saying that I favor huge cores, would rather see more focus on efficiency but ARM could use a bigger core in server and some other markets and , from a marketing perspective, in mobile too.
    We also had A73 and A75 both from the Sophia family and that's unusual as ARM tends to alternate Sophia and Austin so the Austin team had an extra year to work on w/e they are working on.

    Wouldn't be surprised if information is locked behind NDAs for those who want to use all this wiz-bang technology.

    It's impressive that they can add it inside a DynamiQ cluster, DynamiQ is more advanced than I originally thought. I wonder what else can be modified to be included inside the cluster
