It has a Qualcomm 7c which is not powerful at all (as shown in his graph as roughly similar to the "Dot 1"). But... if you don't want to spend $599, it's a fun few weekends. https://www.ebay.com/itm/255784903190?

Good to know but my takeaway from the reviews was that it is slow as molasses. Just over 1k in Geekbench multicore is extremely low.
