Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 is kinda disappointing when compared to the 780G, such small improvements aren't going to be noticed by the average user. If this keeps up, Snapdragon chips as a whole are gonna get left behind by their Mediatek and Apple competitors. Just like how intel got caught with their pants down with AMD's Ryzen series CPUs. My judgment comes from comparing my current Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G with the new Xiaomi 13 Lite with their specs and performance benchmarks. (Of course, this is just my personal opinion, do take my comments with a grain of salt).
