New "*Qualcomm Silicon*" 5nm SOC with integrated 5G... ooops, I didn't mean "*Qualcomm Silicon*" because Qualcomm isn't Apple who bullshits their
customers to the limits of credularity, so you won't hear "*Qualcomm
Silicon*" in their press release today of their 5nm SOC with integrated 5G:
o Qualcomm Redefines Premium at Snapdragon Tech Summit Digital 2020 (Press Release)
<
https://www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2020/12/01/qualcomm-redefines-premium-snapdragon-tech-summit-digital-2020>
I'm not sure how much is hype & how much matters, but they said it has:
o "mmWave and sub-6 across all major bands worldwide"
o "support for 5G carrier aggregation"
o "global multi-SIM"
o "stand alone, non-stand alone, and Dynamic Spectrum"
o "26 tera operations per second (TOPS)" AI
o "lower-power always-on AI processing"
o Updateable GPU Drivers"
o "Desktop Forward Rendering"
o "frame rates achieving up to 144 frames per second (fps)"
o "photos and videos at 2.7 gigapixels per second or roughly 120 photos at
12MP resolution"
As always, take any press release for what it is (MARKETING shills)...
BTW, it's "Samsung Silicon", if it's anything, but it's just stupid to call
it "*Qualcomm Silicon*" or "Samsung Silicon" even as Apple pretends to call their TSMC Silicon ARM technology devices, "Apple Silicon", which sounds as ridiculous as it would for Qualcomm to call this "*Qualcomm Silicon*" as a marketing ploy to take people's minds off the fact it's Samsung Silicon.
Why doesn't Qualcomm call their own chips "*Qualcomm Silicon*" anyway?
o HINT: Qualcomm isn't 100% MARKETING and nearly 0% R&D like Apple is
See details in:
o Qualcomm SnapDragin 888 on-board 5nm X60 5G sub-6 & mmWave & 144Hz displays <

And here for the insanely laughable R&D percentage of Apple expenditures:
o Nobody spends less in R&D % in all high tech than does Apple <

Apple owners tend to fall for the bullshit more so than intelligent people.
