Those people work at Qualcomm now and it shows. They managed to leapfrog Apple silicon in terms of overall efficiency in a gen1 product.

The question is what is Apple going to come up with after M series core designs. Do they have something good, or are they going to do a AMD bulldozer and miss the mark in design?

Snapdragon X still stinks compared to Apple's CPUs. Mostly due to windows.

Pretty decently priced through:

I have other prioritys as opposed to a the latest phone :/

But I wouldn't mind it ... I've lowered my expectations over the years so there can't be too many surprises

You can't have too many other priorities if you're willing to pay 25k+ for a device you consider inferior to others much less costly.

As in, I don't feel the need to have the latest device like I used to my 20s - it's not a big thing for me anymore. But addressing the second part :

I don't necessarily feel it's inferior in every part. I just don't think the difference is nearly as large as the claim and when there's a negative, I'm not really worried about mentioning it and upsetting people? I mean all I have to say is 'it's average' to cause a huge argument because some people believe not only an extention of themselves, but feel they need to represent the company. I dunno?

Yea - and it's weird, don't you think?

I mean you can go on about any brand in the world ... but if you mention that anything that resembles anything negative, people attack you? It's very bizarre to a normal person
 
I mean if this conversation happned with normal people, I don't there'd be this offensive censoring. I think most people would just go on with their lives rather than defend a brand and twist use cases around a product. If Apple changed their watch battery from 18hrs to 9hrs tomorrow, normal people would be like 'wtf'

But the fans would likely say how brilliant it is because it's lighter

No, it's not. You are weird.

You don't think it's weird that product cults exist and you think normal people are weird?
Are you relgious? Maybe you feel that someone is talking negative about your religion and you can't handle it?

I'm not sure the scientists have got it all figured out yet - but check :

'A team of UK neuroscientists has scanned the brain of an Apple fan and discovered that Apple products stimulate the same part of the brain as religious imagery does in people of faith.'
