    Differentiated from premium by battery consumption and heat produced in pocket when not in use.

    Somebody is going to get their chicken cooked with one of these processors.

    Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 already does that, it’s the first “mid range” chip to have basically the same performance as the previous gen flagship.

    “Premium” “pro” “elite” and so on, is near everything now a days, it has lost so much meaning.

    No, it probably won’t. Premium devices are premium and cost premium for a reason, they won’t canibalize their own sales making weaker devices just as strong as their flagships.

    So with the midrange having “premium performance”, what sort of performance will the high end have? Ultra premium?

    Geez, what a non-statement. Low end smartphones have premium performance compared to high end smartphones 8 years ago. They’re basically just saying “technology will advance next year too”.

    So no need to get premium smartphones any more? Or will the premium smartphones have a faster SoC anyway?

    Yeah, thought so.
