r/hardware on Reddit: Apple M3 vs X Elite 78-100 Single core Performance/Watt.
June 19, 2024 -
https://x.com/lafaiel/status/1803125102684545449?s=46
In Cinebench 2024, Vivobook S15(X Elite 78-100) scores 108 and consumes 14.4W of power. Macbook Air 15(M3) scores 142 and consumes 9.98W of power.
But notebookcheck measures device TDP so idle must be subtracted from these figures.
Idle power for the Vivobook is 4.4W and 2.15W for the Macbook. Subtracting these figures, we arrive at 10W CPU only package power for the Vivobook and 7.83W CPU only package power for the Macbook.
The M3 Macbook pro is 31% faster than the X E while consuming 20% lesser power than the X Elite.
This gives the M3 P core a 61.7% better P/W advantage over the X Elite. Bear in mind this would increase if we compare them at iso performance.

The Phawx tested it and the 8840U is more efficient and of course performs better.

While the X1E78100 is quite popular for OEMs, probably because it is the cheapest to integrate, it is definitly not the chip reaching the M3 efficiency wise let alone with performance. I do think Qualcomm naming the entire chip collection 78,80,84 the "X Elite" is quite bad and the real lie. I think the 80 and 84 could be grouped together but the 78 certainly plays a league below them because of the significant lack of ST boost.
