Nice to see Qualcomm catching up at last

Wonder if it’s to late at least for North America.

No one is buying an iPhone instead of an Android phone because it has a faster processor.

I'll take my barely superior cam quality with a side of almost no freedom, thank you very much /s

Don't think so because most people don't care about the CPU and don't come close to using it to the full.

But for power Android users it will be nice. For example users of the Sony Xperia 1 series, 5 series and Pro I will really benefit from more power because tell pros actually use these phones for actual work.

I think its great for everyone in terms of longevity, not just pros.

Hell yeah, I really was wishing for a phone with the speed of iPhone, because I sure as hell will never support Apple. Just another less thing iPhones have going for them.
