>> A72 is a mobile chip

So is Apple A13. And yet it's been reported to outperform all Intel desktop CPUs in single core performance (I find the benchmark dubious, but I do believe it's close, and faster than it has any right to be given the super low power consumption). The only reason it doesn't do so in multicore perf is the limited TDP - a concern which does not exist in high end chips.

Sure. Even all of Apple's macOS-Server machines running the Apple Cloud are powered by A13 chips these days. /s
