Qualcomm brings receipts: Snapdragon X Elite gets benchmarked, completely dunks on Apple’s M2 processor

A place for quality hardware news, reviews, and intelligent discussion.
Apple scheduled a very unusual night meeting at 8pm EST (5pm PST) this evening. They didn't give tons of notice and I believe they didn't announce until after the Qualcomm event either.
I think this unveiling has lit a fire under them and they are worried.
Good times for consumers.
I personally think it goes like this: Qualcomm got hold of Apple was announcing M3 soon so they asked Apple when that would be so they could keep their performance claims, and Apple gave them the go ahead
The worst thing that can happen for apple is that they have to be more clever / careful with the graphs and language they use for their keynotes and websites.
