I don't get it, what's wrong with the 778G? It was a highly competent SoC that was still relevant last year (Samsung's A series from 2022 couldn't come close to it with the Exynos line, save the A73 which came with the 778G), and there are gazillions of comptent phones using slower SoCs that work just fine.

Do people really use their phones or do they look at spec sheets and go, too slow in their mind, like some kind of reverse placebo?

Yes. People hate on the Tensor chip in the Pixel 6/7 because it's "slow", despite day to day performance being literally no different than any other phone.
