What about now, Thomas? The first iPhone came out in 2007, Apple designed their first ARM chip in 2010, and its now 14 years of Apple Silicon becoming more and more powerful yet more efficient. Why don't iPhones have fans now? Can you answer that?A personal computer is meant for heavier, more resource intensive tasks than a tablet and smartphone (which is essentially a miniature tablet). Secondly, the iPhone and iPad both run slower and hotter a couple of years after they were released if they are running one of the last versions of iOS/iPadOS that support them.
Do you think that the intensity of tasks can be plotted on a chart along an axis with different customer types; where maybe theres a segment of customers on the left that don't need to edit 8K RAW or train a large language model?
Thomas, are you able to discern various categories of customer that maybe doesn't need their laptop to act as an enterprise-class workstation? And maybe because of that, those devices don't need fans?
