> Not sure that applies to M1 Ultra that's clearly marketed as a desktop SoC, not a mobile device or laptop SoC. The M1 Ultra is using the same CPU cores and GPU cores as an iPhone, just more of them. It's long been their strategy across the board. Throw silicon die area at tons of execution units and run the chip at a lower clock speed for power efficiency. For example, the 2012 A5X iPad chip had about the same die area as 4 core Ivy Bridge, which was huge for a mobile device SOC. https://www.anandtech.com/show/6330/the-iphone-5-review/4 https://www.anandtech.com/show/6330/the-iphone-5-review/4 Since they are selling the whole widget, they aren't as dependent on minimizing die area to maximize their profit margin.
