Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

Apple C1X vs. QC X80

Sic transit gloria mundi.

"The C1X elevates Apple’s in-house RF capabilities to tier 1 status. Data from Q4 2025 unequivocally demonstrates that Apple’s in-house C1X modem represents a generational leap over the previous C1 model. Our data indicates that it has achieved real-world parity in download and latency performance with the Qualcomm X80 across numerous networks in both ideal and challenging conditions, proving the silicon is a performance equalizer rather than a compromise."

@wb I guess if you are already at the top, down is the only direction left. Using that tortured logic, I can almost make sense of what you said.

Apple is on a race to the bottom. They will tell you 8 GB RAM and 256 GB for $600 is a good deal.

@qp: For sure it is easy enough for Walmart to make it. The problem is that modem chips are going to be cheaper than potato chips soon.

Sad to say, but Qualcomm is becoming less and less relevant. I need to find a good opportunity to offload some of my qcom stock.
