I heared A725 is good, we have to see it, Arm don't have to match Apple just something nice which can do basic tasks and use around 05-1W then they will give X86 hard time.

If it wasn't for their monopoly on windows for arm chips, they would have been forced out of the market a long time ago.

            Chinese solar panels are still cheap and supply is still plentiful.

            It's the tariffs placed on Chinese solar panels by Western countries that are driving up prices for you.

Why woul... moreMan you don't get the point at all, M3 is better because it has better E cores like I said plenty of times before, it has far better battery life Than any pc out there at low load, you can find Fanless laptop with Apple M series or even Ipad, why there is no Fanless Snapdragon X? Because its not good cpu at low load and use more power, just check battery life figures of X elite, it's barely better than Intel and Amd last generation Cpu, Why X Elite can't pelroduce Macbook number in battery life? Because it doesn't have any efficient cores. Which come to Our Topic here Huawei is working with Taishan efficient core, that's future, without it you can't compete, Even Intel is doing wonders with Skymont and I won't be suprised if Lunar lake beat snapdragon X in low load efficiency.

                And you're not getting my point again.

World fell for it once with solar panels and it will never fall for it again.

                    That's totally different from USA unilaterally sanctioning a company like Huawei that followed all the rules to operate in USA. Yes, in case you forgot, Huawei was officially selling phones through carriers in USA before the sanction.

                      Also Spec isn't geekbench never heared one soc have advantage because of accelerators.

                        Hemedans, 30 Jun 2024That's Spec2017 industry standard, and the test is jus... moreI didn't talk about the benchmark system but about the test environment from which Apple SoC would benefit. It's like Apple would do better in photo or video editing. It's their sweet spot for best best-case scenario. Then why would reviewers talk against it? If we talk about programs like hardware acceleration, 3d engine simulation, real-time VM simulation, and running engineering tools, in these areas m series won't even be able to run. SD X elite 23w mode is extremely efficient with dual-core power boost and can compete with m3 well.

                                Its been going on since decades now. They destroyed Nokia too, because it was the only data center outside the purview of USA.

                                USA is about world domination. They can't stay out, even in matters, where no one's bothering them directly.

USA not only sanctioned Huawei but also imposed higher tariffs on Chinese cars because USA is anti‐competition.

Microsoft, Apple, HP, Oracle, Tesla, Coca Cola, McDonald's, KFC etc etc all operate in China. If you're talking about Google and Facebook, they don't operate in China because they steal and sell data and don't comply with Chinese laws.

                                        TechJocky, 29 Jun 2024Isn't so obvious that Apple would do great on CPU and ... moreThat's Spec2017 industry standard, and the test is just 1 thread, per core perfomance not cpu perfomance 5950 is better Cpu because it has 16 cores not because it has better per core perfomance, many phones including Android have better single core perfomance than Zen 3.

                                        Also that's not a point, Apple E cores are better than Arm one or X86 alternative, that's a fact and I havent seen any reputable reviewer saying otherwise. A55 And A78/A77/A76 combo could compete until D8100 but since switching to Arm v9 Arm regressed a lot, all resource are improving cortex X and lower cores barely had improvement. If Huawei can create custom efficient cores and improve on likes of A720/A520 they can compete anywhere.

                                        To understand more how important low core is look on how Snapdragon X fail to match Apple M3, perfomance is there even surpassing it, but battery life and low load X elite is closer to X86 than M3 because it lack E cores.
