    I’ve been running a galaxy S9 for years and have never run into a bottleneck with it.

    Why do y’all keep needing more and more power packed into your phones? It doesn’t make any sense to me.

      I think its more about the power efficiency. Samsung’s exynos line as well as their few latest samsung foundry nodes are not known for being very power efficient, so I think people were holding for the Pixel 9 with a custom TSMC manufactured chip in hopes of it consuming less power and outputting less heat
