  • This is expected if they kept the same N4 node and raised the frequency. Giving that A17 is using TSMC N3E node with raised frequency, this is odd. Or this is -maybe- the silicon lottery due to immature production? Or thermal conductivity of titanium to blame? Effectively keeping the heat inside. This could be really bad for the battery. They don’t like the heat.





  • When I see someone mentioning geekbench multicore score, I just roll my eyes. Compare to other multicore benchmarks like Cinebench, Blender and most gaming bench they are way off in terms of real life performance. It looks like they bench for multicore for separate threads. You know one thread/job for one core and not one job for more than one core. This is great for mobile devices because this shared processing/tasks is a huge power draw so when it is possible using single core for processing/tasks is a huge power saver. I looks to me Geekbench always favored mobile devices and going to stay that way.
