Really want to know that too. Its seems weird to me. Cos the tdp is lower. But intel got good battery time.

The A6 1450 is in the Acer V5 I bought. Its better then a A4 chipset that was in a similar V5 from Acer. Response is good as long as you don't expect too much from a 1.0 ghz CPU. I doubt gaming will be very good with such a slow CPU side of it. GPU wise I think it suffers because of the slow CPU side. HD video plays OK and I find that the basic web surfing, document work, and basic office task are fine with this kind of chipset. Again though I am amazed that better battery life cannot be had from such a low powered APU?

so this A6 seem to b SOC based chip for ultra low power consumption am i right n still not beating intel processors.
