Chapter 449 Kunpeng SOC punches Apple and kicks Qualcomm(1/3)
"And the guy who just spoke, is he a black man arranged by Xingyi Technology?"
"It's too much, it's too much!"
"Now it's better. Tens of millions more people know that our iPhone 5 has a dual-core CPU, which affects sales!"
Cook sighed, looking lonely.
He also knows that dual-core CPUs are somewhat inferior, but there is no other way. Power consumption and heat must be controlled, and there must be some trade-offs.
The GPUs of the A6 and A6X are extremely powerful. If the CPU is also equipped with four cores, it will inevitably heat up too much, the temperature will be too high, the core will be locked and the frequency will be reduced, which will completely overturn it.
Then A6 and A6X become the second NVIDIA Tegra 3.
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Apple chose a powerful GPU, so it had to give up the quad-core CPU and continue to use dual-core.
Therefore, during the promotion process, Apple only emphasized how powerful the A6 GPU was, and did not mention a word about the CPU which was a generation behind.
But I didn't expect that Wang Yi would expose it now!
Now, everyone knows that Apple A6 and A6X are dual-core, so they must be very disgusted with them.
The era of quad-core is coming, and even experienced Apple fans cannot accept the backward dual-core.
In the past, Apple was powerful and had sufficient faith bonus. Even if it was rubbish, fans would buy it.
But now, the Xingyi mobile phone has emerged. The xphone 1 beats the iPhone 4s, and the xphone 1pro continues to beat the iPhone 4s.
Even the newly released iPhone 5 is beaten by the xphone 2!
After being beaten and crushed one after another, Apple fell off the altar, and the faith of Apple fans collapsed.
Nowadays, dual-core CPUs are released, and the consequences can be imagined.
Even the barrage in the live broadcast room has changed:
"No dog wants a double-core apple."
“Xphone 2 and iPhone 5, if I hesitate for a moment, it’s because of my IQ!”
"I will return the iPhone 5 and place an order for the xphone 2."
"I have placed an order for xphone 2. Goodbye Apple. I have been a fan for three years. Never see you again!"
"The fourth generation iPad is also dual-core. It's gone, it's gone, it's Apple's garbage!"
Looking at the comments from his subordinates’ translators, Cook turned pale:
"It's over. In this wave, the sales of iPhone 5 and iPad 4 have begun to plummet."
"No, even Apple's stock price will plummet!"
Cook's expression changed drastically. He suddenly thought of the consequences, but was unable to do anything.
I just didn’t expect that this wave of spinnerets would come so quickly.
Previously, Cook used A6 and A6x GPUs to beat Nvidia Tegra 3, beat Xphone 1pro, and beat Xingyi Tablet X1 pro. At that time, Apple was very proud and Cook was very happy.
The results are now good. Wang Yi also took the CPU and completely beat the A6 and A6x, as well as the iPhone 5 and iPad 4th generation!
Cook felt uncomfortable when the boomerang hit him!
The vice president had no choice but to comfort him: "Chairman, it's okay, we still have the advantage of GPU and we can still win the game!"
"Yes, and a powerful GPU!" Cook nodded.
GPU is Apple’s biggest advantage!
At the press conference, Wang Yi smiled and said: "I hope Apple will work hard as soon as possible to catch up as soon as possible. It is enough to be one or two years behind in the quad-core era, but not three to five years behind."
"Hahaha!" The audience burst into laughter.
Cook's complexion was extremely pale.
This is not very harmful, but very insulting.
No, it is also very harmful.
At least with the reputation of dual-core, iPhone 5 and iPad 4 are not easy to sell.
Wang Yi continued: "Although the quad-core A9 is very good, its performance is not powerful enough. Let's continue to guess what our architecture is?"
"Quad-core A15!"
"No, the A15 heats up too much and can't handle 4 cores. I guess it's a dual-core A15 + dual-core A9!"
“Dual-core A15 + dual-core A9, it’s really possible!”
"The dual-core A15 + dual-core A9 are also ridiculously powerful. The power consumption of the 40nm process is too much."
"My guess is dual-core A15 + dual-core A7!"
"It's possible, the A15 can carry the big work, and the A7 can carry the small work, perfect!"
Wang Yi waved his hand: "Everyone's guess is reasonable, but it's wrong."
"Ah, what kind of structure is that?"
Everyone was confused, they guessed everything they could, and could not think of any other structure at all.
Wang Yi smiled slightly: "A53 architecture!"
"..."
"???"
There was silence for a while, and many users were confused.
I’ve heard of A7, A9, and A15, but I’ve never heard of A53!
Isn’t this number too large?
But Qualcomm Chairman Jacob's expression changed slightly: "A53? They use the ARM V8 architecture!"
"No wonder the chairman of ARM came here in person. It turns out that Xingyi Semiconductor has become the first company to use the V8 architecture. It is natural for the chairman of ARM to stand up in person."
"I just don't know how the A53 performs. It would be interesting if it overturned. Haha."
Nvidia Chairman Lao Huang was also confused: "The first one to adopt the V8 architecture? Mr. Wang is so brave, don't overturn! After all, the new architecture is immature and can easily overturn."
The vice president even said with a smile: "The best thing is to roll over. Once it rolls over, Xingyi Technology will have to continue to purchase our Tegra 3!"
Wang Yi continued: "The architecture of our Kunpeng 700 is not a quad-core A9, nor an A15, nor even a V7 architecture, but a brand new ARM V8 architecture! Quad-core A53!"
"Yes, our Kunpeng 700 is the world's first V8 architecture chip."
“It is the world’s first 64-bit chip!”
"Currently, the chips of our competitors are all V7 architecture, only 32-bit, while our Kunpeng 700 is V8 architecture, 64-bit!"
"In the future, 64-bit systems and 64-bit APPs will become mainstream."
"Paired with a 64-bit processor, even with the same configuration, the performance will be even more terrifying. It will be improved by more than 40%-70%!"
"This is the V8 architecture, the advantage of 64-bit!"
"Wow!" The audience applauded again.
"Even if a 32-bit processor from a friend is upgraded to a 64-bit system, the 64-bit APP will not be able to take advantage of the 64-bit improvements. Because the chip is only 32-bit and cannot be upgraded."
"But Kunpeng 700 is different. This is a chip that is based on the present and looks to the future!"
Applause rang out again.
"Some people may say that 64-bit systems are still far away, very far away. The application of 64-bit will only happen in three or four years. The addition of 64-bit is meaningless."
Everyone nodded, thinking that the update would be very slow.
Wang Yi waved his hand: "This is not necessarily the case. In one year or two years, 64-bit systems and 64-bit APPs will be born."
"Yes, next year, or the year after next at the latest, the mobile phone industry will enter a new era of 64-bit!"
"Just like this year, the mobile phone industry entered the quad-core era quickly!"
"What?"
"Will we enter the 64-bit era next year?"
"No way? I didn't know what 32-bit was until this year!"
“How fast is the mobile phone industry upgrading?”
For a moment, everyone was stunned and in disbelief.
Even Qualcomm Chairman Jacobs and Nvidia Chairman Huang frowned.
Their progress is not that fast.
What kind of trouble does this guy Wang Yi want to do?
Force the entire industry into 64-bit?
Wang Yi smiled faintly: "Yes, the mobile phone industry is updating so fast, so fast! It will only get faster and faster in the future, and it will take off soon."
