      Yeah, but I really like the software. :((
      I'm addicted to Pixel UI. :((

        Timur , 02 Nov 2024but there will be a next generation core, so the performanc... moreYes, the IPC of A725 should be higher (by ~5% or so), but the rumored clocks are also lower (2.86 Ghz for all 5 cores, as opposed to 3.15 Ghz for 3 cores and 2.96 Ghz for 2 cores), so I think performance-wise it will balance out.

        The large core is also similarly clocked at 3.4 Ghz vs (as opposed to 3.3 Ghz in the standard 8G3 and 3.4 Ghz in the 8G3 for Galaxy).

        Ultimately the performance numbers should be within standard margins of error.

        Therefore, I am looking at it as a more power-efficient SD 8Gen 3 (due to the move to 3nm process and more efficient middle cores).

          Man, does Google do anything well, besides Search? I get that alone is racking in so many profits, that they're always trying to get to the next best thing and experiment all the time. However, they always do it in a clumsy way it's not even funny. Amazon for example did that with Kindle, Alexa, AWS, and the fire tablet. Tablet and Alexa mostly flobbed, but Kindle and AWS are a shattering success. Google just has a graveyard of dead projects, it's just sad.

            The only reason why I hate pixel is the tensor.

              Anonymous, 02 Nov 2024Google chips are like samsung will come and go into the sha... moreThe difference is exynos is still at least comparable to snapdragon. Tensor is constantly 2-3 years behind.

              Also hopefully the Google copers will stop blaming Samsung when they realize the tsmc versions also suck it's Google's design team that's the problem.

                                These specs are quite similar to Snapdragon 8 gen 3... 1 large core (X4), 5 medium cores (A725/A720) and 2 small cores (A520). Performance wise it should be in the same ballpark as well.
