Those devices are still running Android. Hard pass.

It's nice Apple is "possibly" getting some competition (We will need a lot more testing to confirm this) but honestly... so what?

Exactly how powerful does a phone processor need to be? I just upgraded from an iPhone Xs Max (from 5 years ago) to an iPhone 15 Pro Max and you know what? There was barely a performance difference! Even though the processor in my 15 Proi Max is 5 generations ahead... yeah... the weather app still gives me the weather just about the same and Safari still works just about the same. Sure... there is SOME noticeable difference. But not much.

Now, if Qualcomm can translate that into Laptop and Desktop performance like Apple has, that's an entirely different matter. But until then... well... yay? I guess?

It’s not about watching Netflix on day one. It’s about being capable of all current AI and applications now, and still being good to do more than watch Netflix on year five.

Especially with local AI requiring more and more hardware.
