Both reported numbers that were nowhere close to what Qualcomm promised. How not close? Above 50% this time but one used the term “Celeron” to describe performance.
There is no harsher way to describe the performance of a CPU. Ouch.
“Atom” is one step further beyond
Wow, how disappointing. One of the quotes say they got less than half as much performance as was promised, I’m hoping it’s a driver issue and not just outright scam marketing.
Yeah, it sounds like Qualcomm is driving straight at a cliff’s edge in terms of their reputation…
That’s fine, the stock is up this quarter with all the hype, they’ll deal with the next quarter when it comes.
This reeks of “make a chip better than Apple’s or y’all are fired” and the ensuing lies throughout the company about the actual performance of the chip to appease management.
