I’d say the 865 was the last “good” Qualcomm chip before the 8 gen 1 broke everything. It can be found in the Galaxy S/Note 20 generation.
Pretty much any soc made by samsung is hot and slow. The return to TSMC with the 8+ gen 1 we saw the thermal improvements.
8gen1 was absolute trash. Performance was phenomenal but only until throttling murders it. It was so bad, active cooling became a thing in phones. Ridiculous.
It killed sonys Xperia mkIVs. Only the 10, which was on an SD695 was any good. 695 seems like another good one, actually. A sibling and my mom got phones with that SoC, and the phones work fast, while sipping battery.
8gen2 seems like a return to form. TSMC again, surprise surprise.
I still daily a SD865 (LG V60) to this day and while it's losing steam in newer mobile gaming titles, it's still flawless for daily usage. Can't think of any complaint really.
