This is incredible in terms of helping push the technology envelope further, but I'm afraid it's just going to be used in the short term by Android handset OEMs as another selling point to tout in the spec wars. I wish that they would focus on the end-to-end user experience more, rather than putting their own brand of lipstick on Android and trying to win a pointless spec arms race.
- Klinky 15y agoGiven that AMD has essentially lost their way as far as being competitive with Intel, I don't view the releases of new mobile products as being pointless processions in an ongoing spec war, but more as a necessity to ramp performance to a point that disruption of the desktop/server space becomes possible. ARM in your phone, tablet, desktop & powering the "cloud" isn't so far fetched. Right now I see ARM & OpenCL/CUDA as much bigger threats to Intel than AMD is.
- guelo 15y agoThat is a weird thing to say. Hardware and software are both advancing as they should.
