    4nm is more efficient than 3? I thought less nanometers meant better efficiency?

                  I would think that the D8500 be like budget flagship chip or high end middle class chip for the performance point of view.
                  Just to think that by performance D7400 is around same as SD 7s Gen 4 or without the s

                  As the D8xxx is more on the level of Sd 7+ gen 2/3 and then the SD 8s Gen 3

                  On the level of D8300/8400 is not a lot of middle class devices. Majority is still with D7xxx that compete with the SD 7/7s Gen X that is the middle class

                  Budget is like D6xxx vs SD 6 gen x SD 695 and Helio Gxx/xxx

                      4nm process is LESS efficient than 3nm. You may call it cheaper, but efficiency is generally understood as energy efficiency.

                              They first copied Samsung's 'e' naming for lower-end hardware, and now Qualcomm's 's' naming. What is going on?
