I wrote a blog post about the dangers of focusing too much on hardware specs to predict performance when choosing hardware. In my experience many other factors (such as the software the hardware will run) have much more of an impact. Focusing on specs alone incentivizes bad practices like planned obsolescence and disposable hardware.
Here is why you should not fall into the trap of relying solely on specs to gauge whether hardware is “fast” or “slow”📱 💻
