We still don't know if the SOC is 5 or 8nn process? It seems too powerful for 8nm but did N really spend money on Samsung 5nm?

Could be dock mode is using a lot more power than we think. If they loosened the TGP to 20-25W and got some efficiencies with node maturation they could pull off the semi-confirmed frequencies. 

If they knew they were going to release the platform so late, they probably would've gone with a Lovelace chip and be able to have something more powerful than the Series S in many ways when docked (assuming the TGP is loosened.) 

I still think it is probably 5nm, but the low battery life makes me wonder.
