>watching 1080p video
Perhaps with specialized instructions to support decoding. Or a discrete graphics card to do the same.
Many contemporaneous reports show owners of Pentium 4 processors complaining about being unable to manage smooth 720p h.264 playback in software even with 100% CPU utilization; and 1080p was completely non-viable.
So now we have a 50+W TDP processor with a graphics accelerator and it will begin to compete with (if we back away from the bleeding edge 7nm stuff as you suggest) a Raspberry Pi Zero, which costs $15 shipped. I mean, OK, but what's the goal we're chasing here?
