Art, Just a total guess on my part. Lots of different factors go into pricing decisions. You may be right. But I think the privacy issue is something that Apple typically thinks ahead of Android. Correct me if I am wrong but I would guess with Android AI, your information is up for sale. As with anything, we will have to wait and see. But the keynote did seem the right tone as evidenced by the share price action.

> Also it's not clear that the recently announced Apple laptops and desktops will be able to meet these criteria. And if the new Apple devices, once they finally reach the market, are tested and found to be inferior to Snapdragon powered phones, laptops, and desktops, the related Apple device prices may drop accordingly. I would be stunned if Apple Silicon somehow became inferior to anything from Qualcomm because Apple controls the design of their processors as well as the OSes that run on them. They are tightly integrated and have a major advantage over other makers of computers and smartphones in that regard. I'm not sure what "AI performance criteria" you're referring to, but Apple is not slacking in processor design and I don't see any way they'll fall measurably behind Qualcomm in that regard. In fact, I expect them to continue to be a leader.
