I dunno… I saw another press release that said it only beat the M3 in multi-core by about 8%, which is hardly “blown out of the water”, especially for a 9-month-old processor, and Qualcomm didn’t release single-core benchmarks, probably because they didn’t outperform the M3 at all. And Apple will be announcing the M4 line soon, expected to release Q3 or Q4 2024 for M4/M4 Pro, with Max and Ultra in Q1/2 2025.

But it is, by all measure, a very good competitor to Apple’s M-series chips which have, until now, been unavailable to anyone but them, which is crappy.
