China ruined this SoC and here's why:
Qualcomm needs the A710 cores because chinese apps still heavily rely on 32 bit apps and the new A715 doesn't offer that so all 32 bit apps would have to be run exclusively on the little A510 cores which would make the new 8 Gen 2 feel slower to chinese customers than the 8 Gen 1. So the whole world misses out on the 20% efficiency improvements of the A715 in the middle cluster because one big market can't move with technology.

Great, even more performance we don't need at the cost of battery time.
