A bleeding edge SoC won't be very impressive if it doesn't work, after all.

This made my day (and it's not 7 am here in Italy), lol.

I think that pretty much anyone should have realized, at this point, that WeTek is not going to push the latest SOC day 1 of release (even if we could, if we were doing things in the same way as who does this kind of business do, aka just compiling the SDK provided by the SOC manufacturer with no customization, no deep testing, etc.).
These are all things that take time, moreover as Ned said, a new SOC brings always new issues, it's not wise buying something with a new SOC at day 1, because what everyone wants is a rock solid experience, not something impressive on specs but that barely runs, like getting a Lambo for driving offroad, you should get it when the track nearby your home is ready
