What was the leap though? Pay huge sums for the best TSMC node and put as much as possible on package? Own the whole stack?

- x0x0 3y agoI don't know what the leap was, just the effect: a combination of perf and battery life that puts everything else to shame.

Given that the next generation Snapdragon offers comparable performance to Apple's M line, it appears that node advances were responsible for a very large percentage of any performance gains.
