Some conclusive test results and good comparison to other soc. https://youtu.be/XgRP9zPbego?si=mbTKS0JkO7pwfCU6 GPU seems to be the weakest point. CPU is decent. If not used for gaming everything should be fine, but disappointing to see downgrade GPU nonetheless.

No buy if they still make bared , naked , rounded display edges . i love what samsung did with a54, a34 . no need of gorilla glass either . this is chinese bs to make fragile phones

The 619L had less ALU than the 619, so it was expectedly a bit slower. Also the Adreno 618 was supposed to be slower as well than those two but it can match the same performance in the real world, which as you said it can be quite different from benchmarks.
The 613 is more akin to Adreno 610-612 so I hardly see it coming close to the numbers from the more recent, faster gpus even with the faster memory.

But well, if someone ever releases a 4g2 with lpddr5 we'll see then.

SShreyas, 08 Sep 2023I don't believe some random ayurvedic foolery either. ... moreYes they should take more care of our eyes, at same time people are fussying all day long for more hdr2048++ color contrast brightness so.... What to do ?
At least they should put a safe mode, lowering UV, nits, PWM. And not that cheating with hidden PWM variations or software mask or color, all those very bad tricks for hiding problems under the hood.
For sure, the current race over nits, uv displays, PWM flickering, and even future mini leds seems not a safe path for eyes at all. Why no eye doctors and serious labs involved into that.
Then those German certifications tüv or whatever, it's a joke. No eye doctor into that, only paperwork people paid by their big brands customers.

One is a desktop GPU with a TDP of 53W and much faster, dedicated GDDR6 memory. The other is an iGPU with 15W and depends entirely on shared system memory.
A more accurate comparison would the the Apple A15 vs A16. Basically same GPU configuration, but A16 supports faster LPDDR5 with around 50% more bandwidth. Yet most benchmarks suggest around 25% GPU performance improvements at best, while GFX Bench shows similar scores in on and offscreen benchmarks. You can check the reviews on this site for the iPhone 14 Pro models to confirm this.
Best case scenario, a Snapdragon 695/4 Gen 1 is still about 30-50% faster in GPU bound scenarios than a fully fledged LPDDR5X Snapdragon 4 gen 2. It is a massive downgrade.

SShreyas, 08 Sep 2023I don't believe some random ayurvedic foolery either. ... moreDid you even read the papers you posted? The first one is about blue light which has nothing to do with 1000 nits and the 2nd paper says high brightness can cause visual fatigue in a low light environment. In other words they prove nothing you said, it said fatigue and not damage. Besides no sane person is going to use 1000 nits in the dark anyway, it is used when ambient lighting is very strong either due to sunlight or bright indoor lighting.

Lpddr4x is 2133mhz and lpddr5 go to 3200mhz roughly 16GBps vs 25GBps, roughly thats 64% more bandwidth.

I know. But then again, I mentioned peak brightness of both the technology. And since AMOLEDs have much higher peak brightness, even on an average, they are operated at a higher brightness.
This does make the health claims of that guy true and relevant.
