Qualcomm certainly has a lot of fanboys in the media. SD 8 Gen 3 is garbage using a massive 17.3W peak power and SD 8 Gen 4 will hit 4GHz and probably use 22W+. We are basically at U series x86 mobile power levels in a phone. Power we don't need at all. This SoC now only makes sense in a large tablet.

From where you're getting those numbers? 8 gen 4 will consuming just 8w according to the report. Do some research

Funny how they need to beat Apple every time. But, I thought that Apple sucks?

So the article says it's for sure bogus, yet they still carry it. That's.. Conflicted. They don't want to be trashy, but can't resist.

Even at x86 architecture, 1.3v is quite hot, reaching ±70°C on cinebech or geekbench, with adequate cooling.. imagine 1.3v on small arm's architecture.. that would be impossible to maintain those clock speed.. no matter how efficient arm's architecture is

Actually these clock speed numbers are rarely reached ,and they're not sustained for long,from my observations minutes.what matters is if they're able to pull lesser power draw at sustained levels.
