The sticking point is the silicon which they don't control. After watching Android flail for 10 years unable to match Apple's ARM processors in phones, I'm unfortunately not super optimistic that Meta can influence Qualcomm to suddenly make the necessary leap in performance needed. Of course, if they concede having an external power brick perhaps they can just stack multiple XR2's in there and get into the range ... but I'll be sad if they go that way. Carrying a power brick has to be a temporary detour, it can't be the long term of this.
- sm_1024 3y agoModern Android processors are pretty competitive with iPhone's silicon: S23, 1.4k (Single core), 4.8k (Multi core), 79.3 (3d mark/GPU) 14 pro max, 1.8k (Single core), 5.3k (Multi core), 74 (3d mark/GPU) Looks like gen2 is already on-par in multi-core and GPU perf. Single core still is 28% faster in iphone. --- https://www.tomsguide.com/news/galaxy-s23-ultra-vs-iphone-14-pro-max#section-galaxy-s23-ultra-vs-iphone-14-pro-max-performance https://www.tomsguide.com/news/galaxy-s23-ultra-vs-iphone-14...
