1000 euros mainstream phone (pixel 10 pro), 300 euros mainstream earbuds (Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds), 3.5k euros maintstream laptop (macbook pro m1 max)

And still, the tech is just awful to use.

I'm on a Teams call/google meet on the mac, I get a simple notifications on the pixel, and poof, no sound from the mac anymore, and it doesn't come back, my only solution is to shutdown the earbuds by putting them in their case, closing it, and reopening them. It's crazy.

In the street, simply wanting to connect my earbuds to the phone, nothing else, nope.

No error message, nothing, just no

Again, shutting down the earbuds, restarting the phone, disconnecting the earbuds and reconnecting them frantically, and then suddenly, it reconnects.

It's so painful, any objective reason why?

TL;DR: The global CPU shortage is more severe but expected to be shorter than the ongoing DRAM crisis, which may last until 2030. Intel's ramp-up of its 18A process node with Panther Lake CPUs aims to ease supply issues, though reliance on TSMC remains critical for components and overall industry recovery.

This paired with Steam's new controller would be interesting. Though, which will come our first? lol

Framework just released their Framework 13 Pro. This is one of the few laptops that have both Amd 300 series and Intel Panther Lake and whose price is known. A lot of people have been comparing Panther Lake to Strix Halo stating that their price was similar, however that is simply not true. The Framework pricing is

AMD HX 370 - 1649$

Intel Core Ultra X7 358H - 1599$

(source: https://frame.work/products/laptop13pro-diy-intel-ultra-3/)

Do remember this isn't even Amd's 400 series , which is even more expensive.

This means that the increased price of the new panther lake laptops isn't due to panther lake, as it would be even more cheaper for larger oem's. Its most likely just the oem's deciding to price it higher due to memory/storage price increases and the fact that since pretty much every other laptop is increasing price, they can raise it as much as they can afford to.

Once the oem's run out of supply of Amd hx370 and ai max that they already previously bought before the RAM shortage, I think they might increase prices. For eg: Asus tuf a14 with ai max 392 is only 200$ lesser than initial price of asus flow z13 with ai max 395 which is generally 1 or 2 levels higher in terms of cost/premiumness than it (back when z13 offered nvidia cards, it was more expensive than the equivalent g14). The tuf a14 is also more expensive than the g14 which performs much better in games and has better battery life and is much more premium. Effectively once they run out of the old stock of z13 they may increase prices.

This collision of new stock of panther lake and old stock of amd might be why the prices of panther lake seem to be higher than strix point and this is probably going to change once they start selling laptops with the amd strix point/strix halo sku's that were bought after the RAM shortage.

I started down the rabbit hole of Arm CPU cores and wanted to see how they all compare to each other on various devices I have in my house. I ended up comparing them to x86 CPUs on Windows as well since CoreMark can be compiled against both Windows, Linux, and Android. These are the results sorted by average speed:

| Device | CPU | Core | Average Speed (it/s) | Stdev | |

|

| | Fire HD 8 8th Gen | MediaTek MT8163B | Cortex-A53 (CPU 0) | 3511.98 | 2.03 | | Galaxy A51515U | Qualcomm Exynos 9611 | Cortex-A53 (CPU 0) | 5404.43 | 37.27 | | Galaxy A526U | Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G 5G | Kryo 570 Silver (Based on Cortex-A55) (CPU 0) | 6457.92 | 91.14 | | Pixel 7 Pro | Google Tensor G2 | Cortex-A55 (Core 0) | 6557.86 | 75.39 | | Galaxy A51515U | Qualcomm Exynos 9611 | Cortex-A73 (CPU 4) | 11148.79 | 15.05 | | Dell T610 | Intel Xeon E5649 | Westmere-E (Core 0) | 12712.49 | 67.22 | | Yoga 7 14IRL8 | Intel Core i7-1355U | Gracemont E-Core (Core 6) | 17314.18 | 282.95 | | Galaxy A526U | Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G 5G | Kryo 570 Gold (Based on Cortex-A77) (CPU 6) | 17545.92 | 10.70 | | Raspberry Pi 5 4GB | Broadcom BCM2712 | Cortex-A76 (Core 0) | 17955.74 | 4.05 | | Pixel 7 Pro | Google Tensor G2 | Cortex-A78 (Core 5) | 20854.48 | 12.35 | | Yoga 7 14IRL8 | Intel Core i7-1355U | Raptor Cove P-Core (Core 0) | 24642.72 | 761.34 | | Pixel 7 Pro | Google Tensor G2 | Cortex-X1 (Core 7) | 26108.49 | 71.39 | | GP66 11UH-032 | Intel Core i7-11800H | Cypress Cove (Core 0) | 31447.33 | 72.81 | | Gaming Server | AMD Ryzen 5 7600X | Zen 4 (Core 0) | 49792.97 | 147.94 |

I compiled the benchmarking binary using the following command in Android and Linux: make PORT_DIR=linux CC=gcc XCFLAGS="-O2 -march=armv8-a" NO_LIBRT=1 run

For Windows, I ran the following command to build the executable: make PORT_DIR=linux CC=gcc XCFLAGS="-O2 -march=x86-64" NO_LIBRT=1 run

My rudimentary understanding is that CoreMark primarily stresses the ALUs of a CPU and that these results reflect the cores' ALU performance. Is this accurate?

I find it interesting that some Arm cores are shared in different devices, such as the Cortex-A53 in the Amazon Fire HD 8 8th Gen and the Samsung Galaxy A51515U. Interestingly, the Galaxy's Cortex-A53 is ~50% more performant than the Fire HD 8's Cortex-A53 even though the maximum core boost clock is only ~31% faster (1.7 GHz vs 1.3 GHz). Anyone have an idea as to why the ALU performance of the Cortex-A53 doesn't scale perfectly with clock speed?

I'm starting to get really interested in this stuff. What other benchmarks can I use to test other functional units of a CPU? I'd like some benchmarks that are:

• Cross platform between Windows, Android, Linux, and MacOS
• FOSS
• Usable on >=armv6 and >=x86-32
