    As far as I know everyone making x86 CPUs have no intrest in the phone space :(. While x86 CPUs can be optimized to near ARM efficiency, it just doesn’t make sense for manufacturers to do so when ARM exists and is fully mature as a phone platform. There are tons of x86 tablets, but that’s because they simply share their laptop counterparts CPU instead of a mega optimized brand new cpu

        As much as I glaze RISC-V, its an embedded architecture firstmost. RISC-V gets a more powerful SOC released now and then but theres not massive adoption for general computing like there is for ARM, leading back into the problem of “Why go with RISC-V when ARM is far more mature?”. And almost no company is building new assembly lines when 99% of their customers dont give a shit about computing freedom
