// WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

MYTH for now: top phone GPUs ≈ 3.4–3.7 TFLOPS vs PS5 ≈ 10.3, and a phone lives on 5–10 W vs a console's ≈ 200 W.

// LESSON NOTES

"My phone is as powerful as a PS5" — so could it run GTA VI? 📱🎮

📊 Graphics power is measured in TFLOPS = trillions of sums a second.
📱 The top phone chips: about 3.5.
🎮 PS5: about 10. Xbox Series X: about 12.
🔋 And a phone has to sip about 5 watts to stay cool in your hand. A console pulls about 200 W, with a big fan.
❌ So: MYTH — for now! About a third of the power.
☁️ But cloud gaming can stream it to your phone.
