    So much penny pinching on IP. I understand that the $150 to $200 price point is unforgiving, but why did Qualcomm regress? Phones aren’t any cheaper, though the node is cheaper.

    Sad to see a 2023 SoC w/o Bluetooth LE, WiFi 6, nor AV1 decode.

    Glad to see better autofocus than three ISPs, but they’ve not even given a first-party data point to be measured against. Is it 0.05ms faster or 200ms faster? Both could be true!

    Is samsung's 4nm that good compared to TSMC's 6nm?

    Yes its better than TSMC N6.

    The one used in E1380 and E1330 is really good. Phone with those soc had really good battery life and perfomance was same with Tsmc 6nm.

    Perf/watt graph from where?

    As long as clock speeds are around 2ghz, it appears 4lpe/4lpp does fine.

    For chips trying to boost until 3 GHz, it seems power usage and thermal throttling becomes an issue.
