The UK/US markets only get the Pro, and whilst the Pro looks nicer, is better in the hands (ladies....), the non Pro has a higher res screen, SD slot and a headphone jack!
Nevertheless, the machine learning SoC in these phones are insane. Check this video out showing off just how much of a staggering difference a dedicated AI chip makes compared to flagships that don't have one:
It's flipping faster than the even Apple's latest machine learning chip!
Some will ask what the point of this is, well it's a massive point, I can't stress that enough. In AR situations, you could point to an image or piece of text and have the text translated or image recognised with virtually zero delay, because machine learning has already built up a big database of everything it has previously encountered and knows what it is seeing.
For cameras this also means the AI chip can see what is in the frame and adjust exposure to bring out the best for every object if it isn't adequately exposed.
I think this year's Q4 phones are the starting point of something pretty big in the phone arena, and this is the kind of generation bump I have been looking for.
