Matthias When I’m complaining about arm cores I’m talking about cortex a510, a710 and x2 with their predecessors, which are the cores Qualcomm mediatek samsung and google use, while Apple uses their own custom design and often different istruction set on their chips, and with 2 performance cores and 4 efficiency are able to obliterate competitors
The complain it’s about the fact that a510 is actually less efficient than a55 and performance about the same, even if there is a 4 years gap, and the same goes for the a710 and a78
Also, SoC power drain is more than what you could think, and you can find in the video I linked the power measurement, where a SoC like the 8 gen 1 can drow 12w at peak which is insanely high for a smartphone to handle.
Also I’ve personally noticed the difference from snapdragon 860 and 870 which where never power efficienct by any means to a snapdragon 888 which can draw up to 10w and even limiting it in 4g when it’s not on WiFi it draws battery way too fast
The display on the other and are what manufacturers are starting to save power on, just look at the most recent top smartphones from the last year and you’ll see that they started adding LTPO to limit power consumption and bumped up battery sizes
