I, personally, am not doing much with my phone i wasn't doing 10 years ago, which about lines up with a 16nm process. I think the camera is the only thing I'd really notice.

Well, and all the internet services you use via the phone going away. Not sure about 5G.

I don't really use much aside from apple music, which was buggy but was released almost exactly 10 years ago, and apple photos, which was already a thing. Google was already circling the drain, so I suppose that's a good point.

5G wasn't really that necessary, although I know it's critical as a broadband replacement for many people.

I would miss TikTok, of course.

What Andy (Grove, Intel cofounder) gives, Bill (Gates) takes away.
