You can define it however you choose to.
As an end user with an Apple chip in my hands, I get better performance than competing products.
I know what you're saying--all those market factors are why the chip in an iPhone achieves better performance than competing phones.
So maybe you can stretch better to mean "well Qualcomm still manages to extract profit". Bully for them--as a user, an A series chip is better.
- starfallg 6y agoBut obviously not having the highest level of performance doesn't prevent from Qualcomm from producing more chips than Apple. So what's at play here is more performance != better. For you and me yes, more performance is good, but there are a lot of factors in play and not everybody looks to performance being the main metric.
- whynotminot 6y agoI'm sorry, I just don't think your point is that interesting though. Qualcomm is still in business so sure they're moving product and making sales. I'm not denying them that. Apple makes an objectively better chip based off performance. I really don't care about much else. Are you a Qualcomm stock holder? What's your definition of better and why is it better than using performance?
