    Only 2 concerns. What's the power consumption of this thing? And can it stay cool inside a smartphone.

    In terms of raw power, its clearly above dimensity 9400 and by some distance. And GPU Performance and efficiency of Dimensity 9400 is already above Apple A18 Pro. But CPU is not that efficient.

    Let's see how efficient 8 Elite is in CPU and GPU Performance.

        Thats crazy performance for smartphones. Way too overkill
        I would rather have that 8 Elite undervolted and underclocked to 2.5 GHz and have 3 day battery life

          I reckon Game Developers would invest AAA titles on Android platforms, this is the beginning for new generation of mobile games. I doubt any AAA titles would come until 2026 at the earliest.

            What are you doing with your phone now and do you intend that to change with a new phone that has this chip? If you think your day to day experience is somehow going to drastically change because of this chip, you will be sorely disappointed.

              Wheres the 'i just read' guy who was so sure it wont have this high of a clockspeed?

                Battery should have nuclear capacity to bear this chip. 7000mAh at least.
                The problem is . . . not so much games to reveal all its might. More companies should follow Red Magic design with cooling and gaming features at competitive price

                  To everyone and I speak for everyone here. And we just want to see how the thermals will handle such a powerful beast that will accompany us throughout next year 2025! Hopefully oneplus incorporates a good dissipation system in the OP 13

                      Is it worth it to upgrade from 8 gen 3? Waiting for real speed test.

                            it would be better if they reset the 800 series.. like Snapdragon 808 (2025)?

                              most important question is thermals
                              secondly i wanna know how the ray tracing compares to something like an rtx gpu, i heard its around rtx 2050 mobile level?

                                  Anonymous, 21 Oct 2024Yes. Gonna bet on k9000 renamed again Kirin 9010 isn't a renamed Kirin 9000, they are completely different chips all things considered.
