Wait for 1.8 nm. Mobile Phone Chips. We already hit 6.0 Ghz on 4 Cores. 18 Angström (1.8 nm) Technology coming in 2026...

and we need to talk its yield rates, early this year their 2nm yield is like 30%, how far better now?
while tsmc 3nm node yield already ~90%

With specs like these wouldn't it be logical to have a variant of this soc that is underclocked (to 8s gen 3 or so) so that it will severely improve battery life?
That's literally one of the thing I hope that will improve: battery life of a full 24 hours of use.

Still 3nm? Samsung, this is your best chance with Exynos. Exynos 2600, 2nm. Put in on all the Galaxy flagship phones of 2026, across all regions.

Shame that this will be without proper turnip drivers so bad with high end emulation.
My snapdragon 8 Gen 3 phone emulates switch games better than this unless there drivers will get better.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 - 12,546 points in multi-core performance at 19.5W
A19 Pro - 11,054 points in multi-core performance at 12.1W
Dimensity 9500 - 10,716 points in multi-core performance at 18W
So :
Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 - 643.38 points per watt
A19 Pro - 913.55 points per watt
Dimensity 9500 - 595.33 points per watt

This Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is just inefficient at best, remember those SoC are for mobile devices not desktop.

If the OS uses 50% of processing power, for example, the benchmark apps can only use 50% of the available processing power. That user said that new phones had the same performance as that of phones released 5 years ago because new OSes required more processing power. This is incorrect.

4.6 Ghz, Lord, even my PC's desktop Intel CPU doesn't go that high, and I can easily play Spider-Man 2 at Full HD 60 fps with barely 28% CPU usage.
There aren't even any proper "console-quality" games made/optimised for Android, so I don't know what all this talk about ray-tracing and Unreal Engine 5 is about when both are terribly optimised even for actual desktop PCs.
