I wonder long it's going to take for news outlets to stop reporting on benchmark scores and start reporting on the bigger, actual problem. That no proper dev takes mobile seriously due to several issues with regards to how app development is handled on both Google and apple platforms.
There are emus that have builds for raspberry pi despite how underpowered that device is but refuse to release anything android.
Doesn't matter how high your scores are if you can't fix these fundamental problems.
"For context, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 regularly passes 4 million points in flagships ..." complete nonsense 😅. I have not seen a single blogger or YouTuber with a result over 4k. The real results are around 3.5k 🎉.
An early benchmark has outlined prospective Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 performance before the chipset's late November launch. Paired with 16 GB of RAM in the OnePlus Ace 6T, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Elite in most tasks while falling well behind the flagship-level Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, despite sharing features like its Adreno 840 GPU.
