If you're looking for emulation and open source, why not buy a Snapdragon device and enjoy the nostalgia instead of using all that energy to reiterate what is already common knowledge by now?

              Don't forget, this soc is 20% cheaper than upcoming Qualcomm, and is at least on pair with that one, and maybe even better. We witnesses here the end of Qualcomm dominance in flagship chipsets!!

                - Lens
                - Sensor
                - ISP (Image Signal Processor, part of the soc)

                CPU has nearly nothing to do...
                Action cam's soc like Ambarella CV5 has ISP able to encode 8k videos despite dual core cortex A76
                Hello G99 which is a dual core cortex A76 too is limited to 2k/30

                    Because they want to start selling the device before 11.11 in China
                    and perhaps for chrismas & new year world wide.

Like others speculate those are wafer cost, how much it cost them to manufacture not price given to Oems.

                        Anonymous, 09 Oct 2024CPU power is the most important factor in image quality on ... moreEh, no? Most of the important tasks in the image processing pipeline take place in ISP (and sometimes in NPU). CPU is accountable for post-processing such as tonal adjustments, but they don't require high computational costs and CPU power has nothing to do with the overall image quality.

                                  Yup straight from Google's deep mind statement:

                                  "External organizations are also adopting and building on AlphaChip. For example, MediaTek, one of the top chip design companies in the world, extended AlphaChip to accelerate the development of their most advanced chips – like the Dimensity Flagship 5G used in Samsung mobile phones "

                                    No one in their right mind is going to look at any of the flagship socs this year and say it's incremental

                                    Are you insane this is the biggest leap in years

                                    This is literally the only time in YEARS it not incremental for both 9400 and 8 gen 4

                                    Come on man
