#snapdragon-8-gen-2

i've been grinding genshin and apex on the 15pm rn and tbh it's no faster than my galaxy s23+ with snapdragon 8 gen 2. boost clock looks good but thermal throttles after ~15min so you still get stutter. apple's extra ray‑tracing cores? just marketing fluff, most vulkan games ignore them. the metal back just makes it heavier. if you want raw fps, snapdragon or mediatek dimensity 9200 still win. also miss the pixel 7 pro's tensor 2 for ai stuff – at least that wasn't wasted on ui tricks. anyone else seeing the same?
