Both Qualcomm and Mediatek have caught up on the phone SoC market.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 has a slightly better CPU than the A19 Pro but a slightly worse GPU. Apple has a very slight advantage in watt usage but that's more than offset by the battery gap. Same thing with the Dimensity 9500.
Well, recheck.

The SoC market is now extremely competitive.
Beats A19 Pro in Geekbench, at 65% higher power consumption.
How is that a win?
