What's the point of having a popping cpu/gpu, screen and 12 gb of ram if it's fucking off :guaido-despair:
PLEASE do what the Chinese phones does and shove batteries down my throat

      That’s not true anymore, you can have good performance under 15W. Power consumption is one of the only metrics CPUs have majorly improved on in the last decade. It’s just that batteries have shrunk accordingly to maintain that “8hr all day battery life”.

          That’s true but you can still do a lot with just 15W. I realize they’re not directly comparable due to differing CPU architectures, OS overhead, and power optimization of the SoC, but the Nintendo Switch uses less than 15W and can pump out decent graphics. It shouldn’t be a big ask for similar performance in a 25W envelope on x86_64.

        Oh for sure, you can definitely game just fine a 15W GPU. However those aren't the ones usually referred to as "popping". Also the battery life on those ones are probably fine.
