Soo much CPU and GPU processing power that almost laptop grade processor level but GPU driver make this processor drag down to deep pit that you have only limited games that really support this GPU driver without having compability issue because its GPU source code is close source. That only thing you use this power is to play Gacha games and few popular shooting games on play store. Kinda real shame to its counterpart have lesser processor power but can able to run emulation without an issue because GPU are open source.

some person, You don't see the bigger picture, it's not about raw scores it's about Spirit, how you play the game, honest or dirty, lies or straight, real effort or mediocre, & that's a way of NanoReview ratings. 🏆

Didn't see the GPU core count number on MediaTek's website so they're still doing 12-core, huh. Also, is that memory bandwidth true? Because that's actually desktop class. I've only see that amount of memory bandwidth (well, close to it) on Apple's M4 in 2024 where it had 120 GB/s memory bandwidth in a 128-bit (8 x 16-bit) memory interface and LPDDR5X-7500 memory. That's a great improvement.
