A Guide to The Weeknd's Discography

Since The Weeknd is performing at the Super Bowl Halftime show, I thought it’d be nice to post a little guide to his discography for anyone interested in looking to do a deep dive into his work. I would’ve posted this the day of the event, but I assume that some people would probably like to go through it over the weekend.
This shares a direct overview of his released material, talking about his career and the background of the music, the videos, the meanings and all. I’ve written this from a pop perspective, keeping in mind that his history might be fairly new for general pop fans.
I also go into the storyline of the red suit character, if your interested in catching up on that narrative before the Halftime show (which will continue the story), I’ve listed the chronological order below followed by an explanation of that narrative.
I wanna be clear that the interpretations/theories are not conclusive. Abel rarely shares the metaphors or meanings behind his music. This is based on widely based on fan discussion/mutual interpretation. Fans can feel free to expand on anything in the comments.
It is important to know about Abel's backstory to get a certain perspective of where he’s coming from, especially when discussing the songs that deal with substance abuse. These recent articles cover his early years really well and share an up-to-date point of view of his success.
Variety 2020
Billboard 2021 - Also a good source for getting to know his team.
So, an essential TL;DR is this: Abel Tesfaye came from a broken home, he was born to Ethiopian immigrant parents who split up when Tesfaye was less than seven. He then lived with his mother and grandmother, only rarely seeing his father but having a nice impression of him. His drug addiction started as soon as he was a high schooler, he turned to shoplifting to pay for this need of various substances. Soon he dropped out of high school, leaving his home the same weekend, which would later inspire his stage name, The Weeknd. The name is reference/homage to the weekend his life changed.
Quick side note, I didn’t think this post would nearly reach the character limit. So I’ve cut out excess detail and lists of producers (with the exception of After Hours since we’re in that era).

XO.

XO is the record label that The Weeknd and co. created in order to publish the first mixtape (House of Balloons) and the ones that would follow afterwards. XO has a lot of meanings that have to do with what went into the music and what still goes into it. XO is what the fans call themselves, popularly with the phrase XO Till We OD (shortened to XOTWOD); another way of saying “we’re ride or die for The Weeknd and his team.”
While some argue that it could mean anything since there isn’t clear meaning to it, fans continue to associate the abbreviation with ecstasy (X) and oxycontin (O). That definition stems from XOTWOD, fans assume it’s true because of the team’s history of drug usage. While others take it as it’s classical definition “hugs and kisses” because of the consistent lyrical nature of The Weeknd’s songs.
Overtime the definition of XO is simply known as: the fans, the crew, and the label. The Weeknd is more than just one person, he comes with XO. For the sake of clarity in this writeup, I’m going to refer to his crew as XO and the fans as “the fans.”
XO still serves as a record label, the current roster is The Weeknd, Belly, Nav, and Black Atlass. It remains The Weeknd’s record label and was his first label before becoming a subsidiary of Republic Records.
Throughout his career, The Weeknd has worked with Illangelo, a Canadian producer who’s work the fans adore. Carlo “Illangelo” Montagnese was one of main the producers on The Weeknd’s Trilogy, he’s credited on each track. The fan base claims his work to be some of the most notable artistry in The Weeknd’s discography. Their work together continued with Beauty Behind The Madness, Illangelo worked on seven tracks for that album. He then returned for After Hours working on another seven tracks.
DaHeala, another Canadian producer, is another significant factor in The Weeknd’s music. Jason “DaHeala” Quenneville worked as lead producer on Kiss Land. He returned to work on six tracks for The Weeknd’s Beauty Behind The Madness, including the hit Earned It. DaHeala returned as a writer for six of the songs on Starboy. Then DaHeala worked on nine After Hours tracks, and worked as the only producewriter alongside The Weeknd for bonus tracks Missed You and Final Lullaby.

House of Balloons.

Didn't wanna make this NSFW, so here's the super clean edited cover
This is a happy house. We’re happy here. (House of Balloons/Glass Table Girls)
One of the most iconic title tracks of all time. House of Balloons is about a lifestyle of drugs, sex, and partying; all in effort to drown out self-doubt. It comes from a place of wanting to make it big while doing what you can to survive, all while pretending everything’s alright. The mixtape describes various sorts of women, how they’ve had impacted the life of someone who’s already down on his luck.
Fans often refer to House of Balloons as The Weeknd’s best work. The mixtape was the first introduction the world got of XO, and it was one hell of a way to make an impression. It’s personal for the fans and Abel because it’s the only piece of work known to be based on his life. At the end of the day he’s a songwriter, with many of his albums he creates scenarios and world that he likes to explore through the music. But House of Balloons is known to be based entirely on his life. It remains The Weeknd’s most critically acclaimed work.
House of Balloons was crafted through the influences of Hip-Hip/Indie-Rock with the main focus on R&B. Through the genius of Ilangelo, the record was—and is—mesmerizing capturing the essence of a lifestyle that The Weeknd described as “anti-everything.”
House of Balloons assisted The Weeknd in gaining the attention of Republic Records, which would then host The Weeknd’s own label XO. Though hesitant at first, XO decided to partner with Republic after the co-founding brothers Monte and Avery Lipman kept coming back to Toronto solely for The Weeknd.
House of Balloons received three videos, The Knowing, Wicked Games and Twenty Eight. The Knowing was the very first video The Weeknd made, so of course it’d be something other-worldly; it essentially reflects the song itself but in a sci-fi setting. Twenty Eight represents Abel’s life after fame but also his remorse of letting captivating women into his life.
Fun fact— House of Balloons is an actual place in Toronto, it was where him and his crew lived after he dropped out of high school. They’d host parties, call girls, do drugs, and to make it less depressing they’d fill it with balloons.

Thursday.

Valerie on the cover
Welcome to the other side. (Life of the Party)
Thursday consists of the same themes as HoB; sex and drugs. But there’s a twist, he’s in a semi-relationship with this girl Valerie. She’s the only one on his mind, even though they meet only one day of the week, any guesses on what day that could be? Through The Weeknd’s phenomenal voice and the insane production, we’re also presented with this story of a toxic relationship where Valerie used to have the upper hand but she no longer does when she falls for The Weeknd.
While Thursday isn’t entirely about the relationship of The Weeknd and Valerie, it consists of reflections to Abel’s life after the release of House of Balloons. The song Rolling Stone notably has a double meaning, in which Abel asks his fans if they’ll stick with him when he gets mainstream appeal and decides to change his sound.
The track Valerie wasn’t on the original release of Thursday, it added when Trilogy was released. Ending the mixtape with Heaven or Las Vegas meant that The Weeknd’s actions with and without Valerie were a result of his fatherless childhood, making him push anyone away. That meaning behind Thursday doesn’t change when Valerie is added to the track list, it just means that both want the toxic relationship back.
The Zone (feat. Drake) was the first feature The Weeknd had on any of his work, the video for it was released in November of 2012. Rolling Stone had also received a video in October of 2012. Both were directed by The Weeknd and reflect the two different aspects of Thursday. The Zone has Valerie living it up in the House of Balloons. And Rolling Stone has The Weeknd doing a photoshoot for Trilogy, reflective of the song itself.
Fun Fact— the female voice heard in Lonely Star is The Weeknd’s, he pitched his voice to make it sound like a woman’s.

Echoes of Silence.

Diana on the cover
Laisse tomber les filles. Un jour c'est toi qu'on laissera. [Leave the girls alone. One day it’ll be you they will leave.] (Montreal)
Out of a dark introductory into the early life of The Weeknd, Echoes of Silence is the darkest work of his Trilogy. Let’s be honest the story here isn’t entirely ethical at times but makes for one hell of a mixtape.
Similar to Thursday, Echoes of Silence follows a storyline. After accumulating success, The Weeknd gains the attention of various women. There was this one woman (D.D.) who he liked but she initially rejected him (Montreal). The woman came back to him for his fame status and evidently fell in love with him (Outside), but now that he’s got the upper hand he treats him like a groupie (XO/The Host) and lets... bad things happen to her; she’s gotta pass a test before she can get with him. This test is either drugs or his crew (Initiation). He ultimately tells this woman that he’s not exactly longterm-relationship material, perhaps because her love is temporary (Same Old Song), because he’s Next. With the end of Echoes of Silence (originally ending on the title track) the listener is left to wonder why The Weeknd left her if he’d simply want her to stay.
As a side note— Initiation should not be condoned. It remains true that The Weeknd is a songwriter and the progression of time has changed perspectives. But a song that makes such suggestions as Initiation should not be ethically/morally claimed or celebrated.
The mixtape follows The Weeknd’s lifestyle after he’s gained all this success, he’s still the same person but now he’s gotten everything he wanted. Some tracks such as The Fall continue to emphasize his journey into stardom and his acceptance of fame being temporary. With the added Till Dawn (Here Comes The Sun), The Weeknd acknowledges the changes in his life, realizing that the old lifestyle is no longer there for him or his past lovers.
Echoes of Silence is known as an underrated gem of The Weeknd’s discography, it’s well received by fans and critically acclaimed but often brushed under the rug in discussion of his work. A lot of fans and casual listeners play the mixtapes through Trilogy rather than their respective albums. This often leads to people not playing EoS either at all or only the first few tracks, this is predominantly due to the nature of the compilation being nearly three hours long.
Fun fact— D.D. is a cover of Michael Jackson’s iconic Dirty Diana. Fans have named the woman in Echoes of Silence Diana because of this track. Various theories argue that the mixtape itself is based on the Dirty Diana itself with exaggerations of the truth, or whether or not it’s a story The Weeknd crafted based on the song.

Trilogy.

Rolling Stone video doubled as a shoot
You don’t know what’s in store. (High For This.)
Trilogy is a compilation of The Weeknd’s mixtapes, House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence. These three mixtapes were released 3-4 months apart from one another for free digital download in 2011, they gained quite a lot of attention from various industry executives.
Prior to the release of Trilogy, The Weeknd featured on Drake’s Take Care with Crew Love. The song was Abel’s first exposure to a Rap crowd/Rap fans, more people began listening to his music after the release of Take Care. The Weeknd then featured on Wiz Khalifa’s Remember You, which served as the second single off Wiz Khalifa’s O.N.I.F.C. Following those two releases, The Weeknd released Wicked Games as the first single off Trilogy.
Trilogy was formed after The Weeknd came under Republic Records’ management. The compilation album reached a debut/peak position of 4 on the Billboard 200 while reaching number one on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It’s a well received album with the highlight said to be House of Balloons, which arguably went on to influence various sorts of R&B music of the 2010s.
Videos for Trilogy

Kiss Land.

Iconic
I went from starin' at the same four walls for 21 years. To seein' the whole world in just 12 months. (Kiss Land)
Kiss Land is based on The Weeknd’s tour life. Visiting unfamiliar places gave Abel horror movie vibes. A guy who used to own the city (Toronto) he lived in is now a small fish in the ocean of the entire world. The Weeknd’s first studio album was a great introduction into the sound he would soon get well acquainted with.
While continuing the R&B sound with the essence of Dark Wave, the album explores emptiness and regret throughout the lyrics—or what pop fans could categorize as dark pop—. The Japanese aesthetic used for various videos and the single covers/booklet reflects the themes of feeling overwhelmed by such a loud world that there’s no point in being if you don’t belong.
The album explores the real-world and the women in it as well as regrets regarding past actions, namely letting go of women who could’ve been the one in Adaptation. The Weeknd attempts to find that satisfaction in other women and past lovers, but accidentally falls for a sex worker in Belong To The World. With Wanderlust he accepts and expresses that love in the modern world isn’t entirely possible. While continuing to tour the world he enjoys these new experiences with XO (Live For feat. Drake), as well as the new women in his life (Kiss Land). And when he’s back home, he accepts the loss of the relationship he cherished.
Kiss Land debuted and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200. It was fairly acclaimed but gained a massive cult following. There were four videos for made for the album, the title track, Belong To the World, Live For (feat. Drake), and Pretty. Those four songs received interesting visuals that kept up with their respective themes while Belong To the World/Kiss Land got visuals that matched the aesthetic of the album. To this day fans ask Abel for a part two to the horror-movie-inspired album after he said it’s the only album he would have a sequel for.
Videos for Kiss Land
Fun Fact— The video for Kiss Land on YouTube is an extremely edited version of the actual video shot for the song. The directors cut further explores the erotic-horror themes if the album.

King of the Fall.

King of the Fall 2020 cover (even though I talk about three other songs here)
Driving by the streets we used to walk through like a triumph. (King of the Fall)
These next few song were released between the Kiss Land and Beauty Behind the Madness era. Some fans would classify them as part of the Beauty Behind the Madness era—I’d say the same tbh—but they stand apart on the basis of success and acclaim. It’s a transition between The Weeknd being an underrated R&B musician to being a mainstream artist with massive recognition and appreciation.
The first of these four songs is King of the Fall. A fan favourite and a standout in The Weeknd’s discography. This is one of The Weeknd’s few Rap tracks, it gained a lot of attention within the Rap sphere. It was the way in which XO would announce that they’ve made it, little did they know that this was just the start.
Prior to the release of Beauty Behind the Madness (BBTM), The Weeknd gained mainstream attention. The Weeknd’s exposure to mainstream music was uphill, it wasn’t overnight. The first taste of BBTM came from Often, a song that reflected the themes of sex that Abel was known for. The track was released more than a year before BBTM’s release and had made it onto the trackless unlike King of the Fall. Slowly but surely The Weeknd gained exposure, his main sources of exposure were through a collaboration and a soundtrack.
Most pop fans heard about The Weeknd through his hit collaboration with Ariana Grande, Love Me Harder. The collab was made through Republic when The Weeknd said he wanted more than what he had gotten through Kiss Land. Ariana and Abel had formed a real bond cough The Hills cough, their bond assisted the song in becoming a memorable hit for both artists. Love Me Harder was a top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
Later that year, The Weeknd was featured on the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack with Earned It, as well as Where You Belong. Earned It became a massive hit peaking at 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and receiving an Oscar nomination for The Weeknd; a massive milestone for XO. Earned It kept up with Abel’s signature lyrics but the production differed heavily from the sort of R&B he was known for.
Videos from that era

Beauty Behind the Madness.

I can hear this image
I'm that ***** with the hair singin' 'bout poppin' pills, fuckin' bitches, livin' life so trill. (Tell Your Friends)
Following the success of Love Me Harder and Earned It, the Beauty Behind the Madness era began with The Hills. This was The Weeknd’s first number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Along with the video, The Hills became an addictive classic. The production and lyrics mirror a mature version of the sound that was originally found on Trilogy. It was truly in keeping with The Weeknd’s character, the only difference was his haircut.
Next came Can’t Feel My Face, a Max Martin production that differed greatly from anything The Weeknd put out in the past. In past songs, Abel had expressed his fear of losing his following if he went mainstream simultaneously asking his fans if they’d stay. He repeats that sentiment in the Can’t Feel My Face video. The sound has changed, the lyrics stay the same but now he’s a pop-star. The song became a hit as it reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. With this massive bop previous fans still stayed, The Weeknd becoming a pop singer didn’t at all alter his image or sound; he mastered it.
In The Night and Acquainted were released as singles on the same day, the were the only singles to come after the release of Beauty Behind The Madness. The former received a music video treatment that followed the theme of the song itself while also starring Abel’s girlfriend at the time, Bella Hadid. Acquainted was robbed of a video even though Abel had shown off the fact that a video was in development; the song kept in the tone of The Weeknd’s work prior to BBTM.
Beauty Behind the Madness captures a Hollywood-based reality that The Weeknd came to understand: the dark aspects of your life will continue to follow you wherever you are. Real Life, Losers (feat. Labrinth), Tell Your Friends, Dark Times (feat. Ed Sheeran), and Prisoner (feat. Lana Del Rey) all capture a nihilistic view of a dream achieved.
Most of the videos of Beauty Behind The Madness have a mysterious white man. He’s featured in The Hills, Can’t Feel My Face, and Tell Your Friends. That man represents the devil. Throughout his journey in those videos, (The Hills) Abel runs into the devil after his car crash, (Can’t Feel My Face) he’s at the club then lights him on fire. The significance behind the fire could be selling his soul to the devil, BBTM is about Hollywood and a popular Hollywood myth is that celebrities sell their souls to the devil in exchange for fame. So in the Can’t Feel My Face video, Abel changes his sound to Pop (from R&B) thus leaving his signature sound in order to become famous, everyone starts enjoying his music once he’s sold his soul.
Then we see The Weeknd burying himself in Tell Your Friends, perhaps leaving the old Abel behind after the deal with the devil. However, instead of thanking the devil, Abel takes his revenge and shoots him. But wait, there’s more! The album trailer for BBTM features the devil burning a billboard with The Weeknd’s face on it, revealing Beauty Behind The Madness. HOWEVER, the final cut for the video features the devil being arrested while The Weeknd watches. This is a more realistic form of karma that the devil gets.
Videos for BBTM

Starboy.

Filled with bops
If I could, I'd trade it all, trade it for a halo. And she said that she'll pray for me, I said, "It's too late for me.” (Ordinary Life)
After the massive success of Beauty Behind the Madness, there was a lot of hype around what The Weeknd would do next; evidently he decided to explore Pop. The fandom he had gained wasn’t entirely based in the Pop sphere, his fans consisted of general Rap fans, but Starboy attracted the Pop audience.
Initially, most of his older fans couldn’t get behind Starboy, it differed greatly from the previous sound. It was crazy to think that the guy who made Trilogy managed to make such a Pop-centric album. But this was Abel expressing his versatility.
Since this is where most pop fans found out about Abel’s work and became fans I won’t talk too much about the singles, rather more about the album itself. His work with Daft Punk cemented this album in an efficient mix between Pop and R&B, where Beauty Behind the Madness was more R&B with Pop, Starboy was considered Pop with R&B.
Beyond the genres, Starboy explores two evident themes. One being his life with fame and recognition. The next being his love life in Hollywood, this aspect of the album came from his relationship with Bella Hadid which ended after the release of the album.
The cross became the symbol for that era and appeared in the album’s photoshoot as well as the videos. There was never any conclusive word on the use of the cross but there are various theories about it, something to note is that Abel was raised Christian, it could perhaps be a reflection of his past.
The cross he uses to destroy his accolades (Starboy video) is assisting him rather than something that’s holding him back. Abel’s upbringing was rough but now he’s celebrating it rather than feeling bad for himself. The cross continues to come up in the Party Monster video, this time it’s in the party house he’s making his way through. Then it shows up in the video for Reminder, this time in the form of his merch, the people wearing it are perhaps representative of his fans. Then we see it in the False Alarm video, both Abel and the girl are wearing it; the notable thing being that Abel holds his cross up before dying. Then in the brilliant video for Secrets, after giving up on the girl he’s with he leaves the building to find a giant cross. And finally in the I Feel It Coming video, The Weeknd sports a shiny cross necklace, and Daft Punk find it years and years after Abel froze.
The videos tell us that the cross is an evident piece of his story. This could mean that his past will always be with him, no matter what sort of fame he’s experiencing he’ll always be who he once was.
Also, I’m gonna take this moment to once again the genius that is the Secrets (both the song and the video). Yes it’s my favourite song/video off of Starboy but it’s so underrated.
Videos for Starboy, Secrets video bottom right
Fun Fact— Most demos of the tracks on Starboy weren’t as pop as they became, they started off R&B but became pop after production.

My Dear Melancholy.

Note the comma
They said our love is just a game, I don't care what they say. But I'ma drink the pain away, I'll be back to my old ways. (Privilege)
Oof (but in a good way, this whole thing is a bop). For this one I’m gonna talk extensively about The Weeknd’s relationships, which personally feels really invasive but it’s but it’s essential when talking about these sad boy anthems. Beyond that I’d just like to state that though they are part of the narrative both Bella Hadid and Selena Gomez deserve respect/privacy.
So when it comes to Pop music fans I think it’s safe to say that we all know a lot about this one. My Dear Melancholy (MDM) came after the very public relationship of The Weeknd and Selena Gomez. However it’s not just about Selena, some songs reflect his relationship with Bella Hadid (whom he got back with a month after MDM’s release).
My Dear Melancholy consists with The Weeknd’s exploration/mastery of merging Pop and R&B together. The EP was praised by fans for its lyrics and production, many went on to theorize that it was his most personal project since House of Balloons. The EP was the shortest album to reach number one on the Billboard 200.
My Dear Melancholy and fan conspiracies; name a better duo. The first theory being that the EP is entirely about Selena Gomez which wasn’t too much of a mystery since the lyric “I almost cut a piece of myself for your life” exists. Not only did MDM come after Abel’s relationship with Selena Gomez but also after his relationship with Bella Hadid. As far as fans were aware those two relationships were the most important relationships Abel had ever been in.
In theory, the songs about Bella and Selena can be categorized. Call Out My Name, Try Me, and Privilege are likely about Selena. Wasted Times, and Hurt You are likely about Bella. Leaving I Was Never There to act as an introspective look into The Weeknd’s life, basically making him hop back on his vices for comfort.
Another popular theory was that My Dear Melancholy was the first of another trilogy. This rumour was widely believed due to the comma at the end of the title on the album cover. But the fans soon gained a real reason to believe this theory, since the CEO of XO (the record label), Sal had liked an Instagram post that featured the cover and alleged date. Since Trilogy is a fan favourite this conspiracy spread like wild fire, so much so that fake titles and covers were made. The name of this trilogy would be: (1)My Dear Melancholy, (2)We’re Alone Together, (3)Abel.
Only one song served as a single for the EP. Call Out My Name was released nearly two months prior to the actual release of the album, it debuted/peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100. The mysterious video captures The Weeknd in various atmospheric places that reflect the tone of the EP, a haunting yet unexplained reality that the listener is to reflect on.
From the cover, to the music, to the video, to lyrics, My Dear Melancholy is an introspective reflection of heartbreak.
Call out my name video

After Hours.

Talented, Brilliant, Incredible, etc.
My darkest hours. (After Hours)
After Hours comes after success but references two lows in The Weeknd’s life. The album welcomes darkness and leads the listener towards a dead-end. The Weeknd’s past two albums (Beauty Behind The Madness and Starboy) ended on hopeful notes, they left the listener with a sense of hope but all hope his lost with After Hours.
Fans compare After Hours to House of Balloons—a rare occurrence considering House of Balloons’ acclaim—arguing that both albums are on the same level. Debate continues on whether or not both albums are on the same caliber. The belief that After Hours stems from reality does a lot to help its side of the argument.
The era began with Mercedes-Benz commercial that featured Blinding Lights, that was our first taste of the everlasting bop. Heartless was premiered on an episode of Memento Mori hours before its release on the 27 of November (2019), Blinding Lights was released two days later. Both videos were as brain melting as promised and the served as the tip of the iceberg.
After Hours was released nine days after COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, there was a massive risk in releasing an album that would not have a lot of promotion after it’s release (other than magazine coverage). There was no telling whether or not people would pay attention to the album during the height of the fear surrounding the pandemic, but it was a massive success. After Hours debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, with singles Heartless and Blinding Lights topping the Billboard Hot 100.
The album is layered with haunting productions that remains predominantly R&B but dives deep into Pop with some of the tracks. Max Martin produced the massive hit Blinding Lights as well as In Your Eyes, Save Your Tears, Hardest to Love, and Scared to Live which samples Elton John’s Your Song. Other notable producers include Metro Boomin who worked on the hit Heartless as well as Escape from LA, Faith, and Until I Bleed Out. With Kevin Parker on the interlude Repeat After Me.
Beyond the production are the narrative driven lyrics. In theory the album references two significant events in Abel’s life, his second breakup with Bella Hadid and his arrest in Las Vegas. The latter was due to his misbehaviour; in January 2015 he punched a cop in Vegas, lmao. Which means that After Hours is a recollection of The Weeknd’s first few years in LA. He merges the concept of his breakup with the idea of being an upcoming star, feeling free in the city of lights all while diving deep into the meaninglessness of those lights.
While After Hours starts with loneliness and a second chance it leads up to Abel returning to his vices of lust. In Alone Again his loneliness caught up to him and he’s asking for a second chance. He acknowledges his mistakes and situation in Too Late/Hardest to Love, in Scared to Live his ex then returns to him for a second time. He remembers his past ways in Snowchild and the way in which it lead to better days, but where do you go after such highs? In Escape From LA he faces the superficial reality of Hollywood, glad that he got that he got back with his ex, while continuing to question if it’s worth it. But he fucks up the second chance when she pulls up to the studio.
Who is she? Much like the other mysteries surrounding The Weeknd’s music, we may never know. Is it all more of The Weeknd’s songwriting ability or is it driven by reality? Fans found a merge between the two to be more accurate, After Hours is about heartbreak and a return to the vices that held The Weeknd back.
Heartless is when The Weeknd is once again back to his ways, he may have been in a serious relationship but after throwing that away he spirals back to the way he once was. It’s sad but it’s one hell of a song. Speaking of brilliant songs, Faith is when Abel admits that he’s back on his vices, he states that he needs his ex back with him till the end; he’s back to self-loathing.
So when he says he’s blinded by the lights, there’s two meanings to it. The Faith outro tells us that he’s in a car with flashing lights, a cop car (as confirmed by Abel) to be exact. Then Blinding Lights tells us that while he’s watching the bright lights of Vegas pass him by he calls out for the girl that he regrets losing. That is the peak of the After Hours narrative. He’s behaving badly over the loss of the girl he loved and is now at the worst position trying to find her and gain her trust for a third time.
Following Blinding Lights is In Your Eyes, this is where The Weeknd vows not to judge her; he can see right through her but will never do anything to make her upset. Does this mean their back together? Not exactly. Save Your Tears details a sort of moving-on that The Weeknd isn’t ready for but tries to help her move on, blind to his own inability to move on. Does it work? Not really. Repeat After Me (Interlude) shows that he’s still trying to convince himself that he’s unfazed by the loss of a meaningful relationship.
Then you hear a true masterpiece. The title track is a spiral into true regret and an apology for his actions, he admits that his ex girlfriend is the only reason he lives. In a dark lonely city she’s the only one keeping him sane. But his pleas fail, Until I Bleed Out is when The Weeknd no longer wants her in his life so much so that he wants to erase his memory of anything related to her. The bonus tracks then echo the final sentiment.
It’s one sad ass album, ain’t it. But here’s where the Red Suit Character comes in.
Shoutout to the makeup department
The album isn’t the only narrative to follow with After Hours. The videos for the album follow their own sort of narrative. The story follows an unnamed guy that goes by “red suit character” according to The Weeknd.
There’s a lot of confusion and endless theories surrounding this character’s story, after The Weeknd confirmed that it’s about a decent into Hollywood culture it makes more sense… kind of. I’m gonna discuss the storyline without talking about the movies that have influenced it, this way the focus remains on the character.
The order of these videos is Heartless / Blinding Lights / Blinding Lights (Live on Kimmel)* / After Hours short film / In Your Eyes / Until I Bleed Out / Snowchild / Too Late / Live at AMAs* / Save Your Tears
*Though all live performances could count as part of the narrative, these one relate directly with the videos that follow.
He’s is first seen in Vegas with Metro Boomin (Heartless), intoxicated on various substances. He dives deeper into his high until he licks a frog, after that he faces the true effects of this high. He’s frightened by the result and runs far away from Vegas. (Blinding Lights) He’s then found in LA, where he’s dancing in the street, hypnotized by the singer, beat up by guards, and races past all those bright lights in his Benz. Ultimately realizing the shallowness of the Los Angeles fantasy.
(Blinding Lights Live on Kimmel) We then find him performing Blinding Lights live, while he attempts to find more reason in within the madness city; he couldn’t find it on the streets so he goes to the stage. (After Hours short film) Even then there’s no meaning to anything in the city, he mindlessly wanders into the depth of the subway where he’s dragged by the reality of it all and ends up possessed. (In Your Eyes) After being possessed he chases the woman whose boyfriend he just murdered, she runs into a club falls deeper into the After Hours fantasy, in a successful attempt to defend herself she beheads the red suit character and dances all over LA with his head, iconic behaviour.
(Until I Bleed Out) Then in an ethereal dreamscape, red suit character finds himself in a House of Balloons. He’s trying to escape, but the people there keep pulling him in; he’s getting higher while observing Glass Table Girls. He spirals into the antarctic, the other side of the world. From Heatless to this point in his story, his vices lead him back to the lowest point in Abel’s life. Is it Hell, Heaven or Las Vegas? (Snowchild) He relives his career up until the point where his story began. Considering he’s dead, his life basically flashed before his eyes.
(Too Late) LA girls find the red suit character’s head and live their best life. They wanna have sex with him so they find the best boy parts by calling up a stripper who could be the body. The stitch the head up with the body and do what they want. But now he’s brought back to life. (Live at AMAs) He’s had work done… He went in to get his nose fixed and the doctor said “you sure that’s all you want?” The red suit character’s face is healing while he tries to celebrate his life on top of a bridge.
(Save Your Tears) Surrounded by a masked cult he debut’s his new face. Do they like it? Are they impressed? Not instantly, their masks translate no expression so how’s he to know? Is any of this worth it? Nope red suit character continues to die inside. He finds a maskless girl in the crowd, she’s lively unlike the rest; but even then, nothing on the inside nothing on the outside. He wants death again, somehow a second chance with this city is still pointless. He tries to kill himself via the girl and himself but it’s all a facade; theatrics.
His story continues but that’s all we know so far.
The videos make a lot of film references. This post by explain these references very well, as well as past album references here (part one) and here (part two).
After Hours is inspired by a lot of movies, since Abel is in fact a cinephile. The main movies that inspired the aesthetic and storytelling are believed to be Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998), Casino (1995), Joker (2019), Uncut Gems (2020), and After Hours (1985). The album tells two sad narratives but remains one of The Weeknd’s best works yet. He’s expanded his videography and enhanced the interest of people who casually enjoy his music and of course his fans.
But the era isn’t over, by the time this is posted his Super Bowl Halftime show is yet to happen. And it’ll continue the red suit character’s story.
Videos for After Hours (so far)
Fun Fact—The Heartless video features a reference to Thursday. When he’s trying to run from Vegas, a sign behind him flashes “Heartless / Heaven or Las Vegas.” This could be a reference to Abel running from his past, after all Heartless is about him returning to his vices.

END.

Thank you for reading this, again, I didn’t realize it would end up being this long. But I hope this this served as a nice refresher for any fans who wanted to revisit Abel’s work before the Super Bowl.
And I really hope that anyone interested in getting into his music finds this helpful. Once again, the theories/interpretations mentioned aren’t conclusive, they’re widely based on fan discussion/mutual interpretation.
Due to the character limit I couldn’t add too links to the albums, so here are some artist links.

WHY CANNABIS MARKET FOR 2021

The cannabis market right now is so similar to the start of the green energy market.. its nowhere near done being bullish. Save for some small dips, there will very likely be a huge bullish trend for 2021. EVEN NASDAQ AGREES. I’ve posted my positions a few times, and I’ll continue to do so. But this is my reasoning for investing in cannabis stocks in general for 2021.





Other ongoing state legislature:
Now that you understand why I’m going green, here’s my reasoning for my positions.
TLRY (Tilray)
GNLN (Greenlane Holdings)

SNDL (Sundial Growers)

PLNHF (Planet 13 Holdings)

I’m well aware of other good stocks like GTBIF, CRLBF, SSPK, TCNNF, GRWG.. but these stocks haven’t been swinging as hard in response to pro-cannabis news. E.g. TLRY, SNDL, GNLN swung more than 20% some days from pro-cannabis news...I will likely reduce my current positions shortly after inauguration, after some news about the timeline for cannabis legislation, and diversify my positions more between these other good picks.

2021 is the year of cannabis boys

Any Interest in an Error-Free 371Mod List for [1.2]

\2/12/21: Most Recent Update, Check Edits at Bottom of Post\**
After more time than I care to admit, I have finally reorganized my modlist to the point where when I load, no error logs show (harmless or not) There are 371 mods included with a load time of roughly 468 Seconds for Startup & 132.2 Seconds for "not directly related to mods" (16gb ram if that matters)
Now while this is certainly a significant load time; I've lurked on the sub long enough to know this isn't necessarily a deal breaker for many of you.
This load time can be significantly decreased by taking out a few mods which I have made note of in a Notepad List I have created tonight. [(My normal modlist which did not include SOS2, Genetic Rim, Alpha Animals, and Dinosauria (plus all related patches) was 341 Seconds for Startup & 81.6 Seconds)]
I just wanted to gauge if there was interest in me sharing my list with yall on the sub. I am pretty proud of it and excited to get a long playthrough going.
The bulk of these mods have been in my list for quite a long time and I have experienced zero errors. However recently I have noticed that there was a caravan spam thing going on, which may have been prompted in an update to "More Faction Interaction" Specifically with how it gels with "Dynamic Diplomacy" However after looking at both mod pages, there seems to be a way to rectify this (once again noting that this had not been an issue until a few days ago") I am about to test this now and will update the list with my notes if the issues are not rectified.
The Notepad List I have created breaks down by section my modlist, and the order in which I have it. I based my list off of Trisscar's list which can be found here: https://rwom.fandom.com/wiki/Mod_Order_Guide

And to any mod creators who see this post, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for making Rimworld something truly epic. I cannot put into words how much joy this game has brought me; and its 100% because of the excellent modding community and the modders who have made so many whacky, zany things possible. You took a masterpiece (Thanks Tynan - forever grateful to you as well!) and made it into something that I dont even have the words for.
F*cking Epic.

EDIT #1: Just saw we can have up to 40k character limit on posts so I will be sharing my list on here just as soon as I get a mod collection of all of them together for yall. Just got home so I am getting on it right now! So I'll be posting a link to my mod collection will all the mods and a list of how I arranged them.
EDIT #2: ALRIGHT FOLKS IT IS LIVE!!! SO EXCITED TO HEAR YALLS FEEDBACK! I added the mods to collection as they appear in my modlist but also will include text below of my modlist for you to copy and paste in a notepad and save or whatever!

Alright folks I hope you enjoy this, I would love to hear yalls feedback on it. How you like, what mods you wouldd add, etc. Please be sure to like the mods, write a nice note to the modders, and if possible, donate to those whose mods you simply cant live without!

EDIT A: Based on suggestions by yall I added rimefeller, hunt for me,numbers, rimatomics. I was gonna add Prison Labor to the mix but saw it was incompatible with "CleaningArea", and since I use CA much more than take prisoners alive, I left PL on my sidelist for now. I may test out "Children and Learning" down the road, but currently have been running solo playthroughs.
EDIT B: *Important* Just found out there was an updated version of Expanded Prosthetics and Organ Engineering ( Expanded Prosthetics and Organ Engineering - Forked ) So I have updated my mod collection and this list to reflect that, as well as the two addons for EPOE Forked (Royalty and Alien Patcher addon)

How powerful is the Oculus Quest 2? – Part 2
Let’s Revisit: “The Oculus Quest 2 is approximately as powerful as an Xbox One S” - Is the Quest 2 truly as powerful as an Xbox One S?
(Written and posted January 2021 by MaybeVRoomer)

TL; DR 6400 words: Not quite.

Prologue
Firstly, I’d like to thank everyone for all the interest, attention and support my previous post got (now referred to as Part 1). I was very glad to see my very first Reddit post stirred a lot of discussion and thanks to your comments, critiques and links, I am able to write Part 2 with far more information than I otherwise would have found, and with far more points that I otherwise might have overlooked, so thank you! I would also like to apologise in advance for the length of this post, which is much longer than Part 1 (ughh I know). I do however believe it to be important to show each step of research with all the references, evidence and data that has been gathered relating to this topic, so if you manage to read through all of this, thank you very much!
Due to the influx of new info now available, I will have to dedicate this post to readdress Part 1, going into detail about the Quest 2’s specs and performance, the Xbox One S’ specs and performance, and finally a more accurate comparison between the two. This means that a detailed explanation as to why Quest 2 games don’t and won’t look as good as Xbox One games will have to wait for Part 3, but here is a quick snippet about one of the most obvious factors (and there are many other factors that will need to be addressed): whilst Xbox One S games target 900p-1080p at 30fps, or 720p-900p at 60fps, the Quest 2 usually targets anywhere between its default render resolution of 2880x1584 (combined) all the way up to the display’s native 3664x1920 (combined) at frame rates of 72-90fps no less. If the two systems do in fact have similar hardware capabilities, it is without a doubt necessary for visual fidelity and complexity to be scaled down from what might have looked like PS4/Xbox One equivalents to roughly PS3/X360 levels in order for them to be rendered at this combination high resolution and framerate. So, what you see in most native Quest 2 games are indeed essentially PS3/X360 era graphics but rendered at much higher resolutions with higher framerates (think Contractors, Star Wars TFTGE or Red Matter). The other factors I’ll go into another time, so let’s get back to the main topic.
As mentioned in Part 1, comparing different hardware with different architecture is challenging, therefore, we can only use the data and tools we have available to us (which is no doubt better than no data at all) to give us at least a ballpark idea of what we are working with. Please feel free to go back and read through Part 1 which has been left unchanged except for the updated subheading and links to this post.

(Section 1.1) - Introduction
To begin, here’s a recap of the basic hardware specifications for both the Oculus Quest 2 and the Microsoft Xbox One S in the table below.
Specifications: Quest 2 & Xbox One S (sources: Quest 2 & Xbox One S)

In Part 1, two claims were made. Firstly, that the Quest 2 is as roughly as powerful as an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G and secondly, that based on this, the Quest 2 is as powerful as an Xbox One S. Part 1 was written around the time of the Quest 2’s release and was based on the limited data that was available at the time. Since then, there has been a much larger pool of more accurate data that we now have access to, which we will use throughout this post. We used and will continue to use the Xbox One S model as a comparison as it is the most recent base Xbox of the previous (eighth) console generation, superseding the original (2013) Xbox One in 2016 with only a few improvements. These improvements include a more cost-effective and energy efficient 16nm process, a 7.1% GPU clock speed increase and a 15GB/s bandwidth increase for its 32MB ESRAM, with all other relevant specifications being virtually identical. This also puts the Xbox One S comfortably between the original Xbox One and base PS4. Therefore, if the Quest 2 were to be as powerful as an Xbox One S, the claim could easily be made that the Quest 2 is as powerful as an eighth-generation home console. Whether this claim could now be made is what this post aims to find out.
So, going back to the claims made in Part 1, is an XR2 chipset still as powerful as an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G? Overall, the answer to this is still a YES (roughly). Is the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G as powerful as an Xbox One S? For this, the answer is also still a YES. So, is the Quest 2 really as powerful as an Xbox One S? As a whole, this is now a big big NO! A bit confusing right? Let’s dive in.

(Section 2.1) CPU: Quest 2’s SoC and the XR2 - Same but not the same?

https://preview.redd.it/fnfqac5vdnd61.jpg?width=230&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d215eaad9214f227b99ef3f6c8eef41ee110632c
Here, we go into the Oculus Quest 2’s system-on-a-chip (SoC) and its CPU. As mentioned in Part 1, the Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 SoC (which is a modified Snapdragon 865 built for standalone VR) powers the Quest 2. The XR2 features a 'Kryo 585' 8-core CPU, 'Adreno 650' GPU and 6GB of onboard RAM. At the time of writing Part 1, the only benchmark available that featured the XR2 happened to be of a yet unreleased version of the HTC Vive Focus headset, and in terms of CPU and GPU performance it benchmarked a score that was virtually on par with the those of an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G Desktop APU (why this APU was used as a comparison is explained in Part 1). The 3400G also performed marginally better than an Xbox One S in most game benchmarks, leading to the conclusion that if an XR2 (and by extension the Quest 2 that it powers) is approximately as powerful as a 3400G, then it should be at least as powerful as an Xbox One S.
Since the Quest 2’s release, users have managed to benchmark the headset’s CPU by sideloading Geekbench 5, a widely used cross-platform/cross-architecture CPU benchmarking tool, and the results were surprising. The median scores of Quest 2’s CPU performance benchmark were “Single Core: 451, Multi-core: 1357”, each of which is less than half the benchmark scores of the CPU on an HTC Vive Focus (XR2) despite the two headsets supposedly sharing identical SoCs.

This also means the Quest 2’s CPU scores much lower than the CPU onboard an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G APU. UploadVR have also written an article to cover their own benchmarking tests, which help provide us with a bit more info on this topic. In it, they show their own Geekbench 5 results for the Quest 2, with scores approximately 18-24% higher than the median score of the user uploaded results and much higher than the top user uploaded score, but still much lower than that of the XR2 powered Vive Focus. The reason for the discrepancy between the user-uploaded Quest 2 results and UploadVR’s can be explained by a clarification in their article. For their CPU benchmark test, UploadVR mentions that the guardian system was turned off, a blank home-screen was installed and clock speeds were maximised to the limit the system would allow, therefore we can consider that these figures may actually not reflect a realistic use-case scenario. Even if we were to include this dataset to the pool of user-uploaded results, this has almost no effect to raise the median score-pair as the next dataset up is virtually identical. When comparing the benchmark results to those of a mobile device powered by a Snapdragon 865, such as the ASUS Zenfone 7, we see the phone also scores much higher on CPU performance than the Quest 2 and, as expected, near identically to the HTC Vive Focus (XR2).

(Section 2.2) So why is the Quest 2 CPU performing so much worse?
When asked by Twitter users, John Carmack of Oculus/Facebook confirmed that the speed of several cores in the Quest 2’s CPU have been intentionally underclocked to “about half”, which appears to correlate with the Geekbench user results (he also mentions the GPU is clocked “most of the way up” which we will come back to later in this post). This seems to have been done to ensure a reasonable battery life, and to prevent thermal throttling/overheating. To put this into perspective, the XR2/865’s CPU when stock and unconstrained features different clock speeds for each of its 8 cores by default. The single ‘Prime’ core is by default the fastest with boost of up to 2.84 GHz, followed by each of the three secondary ‘Gold’ cores that go up to 2.42 GHz, and finally the four remaining ‘Silver’ cores which are clocked at 1.80GHz. However, in the case of the Quest 2, the Prime and Gold cores being the more power-hungry cores have had their clock speeds reduced to frequencies lower than those of the Silver-cores, explaining the dramatic difference in the Geekbench results between the Quest 2 and the HTC Vive Focus (XR2). Using their own Android tools, UploadVR are also able to corroborate this and report that the Gold-cores of the Quest 2 operate at 1.5GHz and the Silver-cores remain unchanged at 1.8GHz (incorrectly labelled as “1.9GHz”), with no mention of speed of the single Prime-core, but which we now know is below 1.5GHz. John Carmack has also stated that in future, clock speeds could be boosted higher for short periods for start-up (either for the system, apps or games) suggesting the caps to the core speeds are done through software (and by extension, these could theoretically be unlocked with a firmware update, although this seems highly unlikely to happen).

As a side-note, it’s worth mentioning that whilst preserving battery life on a phone with an 865 (such as a Zenfone 7) is indeed important, phones do not have to constantly track their position in 3D space to near millimetre precision, let alone two wireless controllers at the frequency needed for smooth and reliable tracking in addition to running fairly complex 3D games. Therefore, even with a higher clocked CPU, phones are able to run for much longer due to the lower demands on them. We can see evidence of the high energy demand of the Quest 2 with its relatively short 2-hour gameplay time when using the built-in battery, even with its fairly decent capacity of 3640mAh.
So, what about the Geekbench score for the HTC Vive Focus (XR2), why is this headset seemingly able to perform so much better than a Quest 2? Well, we can speculate two theories. One is that since the Vive Focus is a standalone headset meant for enterprise customers (businesses) and not for home consumers, it can afford to be bigger, heavier, noisier and pricier than the Quest 2. This would allow for sufficient room and budget to include a beefier cooling system and even a higher capacity battery to be able to take full advantage of the XR2’s capabilities. Second theory is that since the XR2 based Vive Focus is still unreleased (thus, could still be in development), this benchmark was done as a test in a sterile best-case scenario, ignoring (or at least lowering) the consideration of power and thermal constraints that would need to be factored in before it is released. Either way, the benchmarks for the Vive Focus match those of a Snapdragon 865 powered phone, so it is highly likely that they accurately reflect the capabilities of the chipset itself when unconstrained.
So, to summarise this section; a stock XR2/865’s Kryo 585 CPU as seen in the Vive Focus and Asus Zenfone 7 is still equivalent in performance to an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G’s CPU as stated in Part 1. However, due to battery life and thermal constraints the the Quest 2’s CPU has been significantly down-clocked and therefore is indeed much slower and lower performing than that of a stock XR2/865. This means that the Quest 2’s CPU is not even close to the performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G’s CPU.

(Section 3.1) GPU: Quest 2’s Adreno 650
Quest 2’s GPU is the Adreno 650 which is packaged onboard all Snapdragon XR2/865 systems. The default clock speed for the Adreno 650 on a stock XR2/865 is 587MHz, however as Carmack mentioned, the Quest 2 has its GPU under-clocked, although nowhere near the down-clock seen on the CPU. The exact speed at which the Quest 2’s GPU is operating is at first unclear. Thankfully, UploadVR in their benchmark article have included one piece of data regarding the Quest 2’s GPU. For this they used GFXBench 5.0, another cross-platform/cross-architecture tool but specifically for benchmarking GPU performance, using the latest benchmark within called ‘Aztec Ruins’ which simulates recent game titles.
Using the Aztec Ruins Higher Tier (1440p) Offscreen test running on the Quest 2, Upload VR have reported a score of 1142 (the number of frames that were able to be rendered within the duration of the benchmark), where the higher the score the better. “Offscreen” is the method used as it renders at a set resolution (in this case 1440p) as opposed to the “Onscreen” test which renders at a device’s native resolution or the resolution of the display that is plugged into it which would make comparisons needlessly more challenging. Unfortunately, the results for the 1080p version of the Aztec Ruins benchmark as well as other legacy benchmarks included within GFXBench such as ‘Car Chase’ (GFXBench 4) and ‘Manhattan 3.1’ (GFXBench 3) are not reported. In any case, thanks to UploadVR’s reported benchmark score, we can actually calculate a ballpark estimate for the Quest 2’s GPU clock speed.
This is done by first finding the same GFXBench test results for the Asus Zenfone 7 which features a stock Adreno 650 GPU at 587mhz, in addition to those for its more powerful gaming-oriented relative, the Asus ROG Phone 3, which also features an Adreno 650 but at a higher clock speed of 670Mhz. Given that we have two frequencies for the same type of GPU as the Quest 2, as well as the benchmark scores for each frequency, we can use a simple rate of change (deceleration) formula to give us the estimated clock speed that would achieve the 1142 score reported.

Asus ROG Phone 3 vs Asus Zenfone 7, GFXBench 5 GPU Benchmark Comparison (Source)

  • To get our rate of change for the 1440p benchmark: -(670-587) ÷ (1419-1314) = -0.79 MHz/frame
  • Then to get our estimated clock speed: 587+(-0.79(1314-1142)) = 451MHz

This would lead us to an estimated clock speed of 451MHz, a 23% drop in speed compared to stock, correlating with Carmack’s “most of the way up” comment. Again, this is an estimate and may not be the actual frequency, but is probably close. Using this frequency and the same formula, we are also able to calculate the ballpark estimate for the Aztec Ruins Normal Tier (1080p) Offscreen test.

  • Rate of change for 1080p benchmark: -(3751-3483) ÷ (670-587) = -3.23 frames/MHz
  • Then to get the estimated score for 451MHz: 3483+(-3.23(587-451) = 3043.72
This gives us a Quest 2 benchmark score of approximately 3044 frames. This suggests the Quest 2’s GPU is a 12.6-13.1% drop in performance when compared to a stock Adreno 650.
Adreno 650 GPU Performance Comparisons

It should be also be noted here that tech page GSMArena was found to have already attempted to benchmark the Quest 2's CPU and GPU in their review, however, when studying their results as of January 2021, it is very clear they have been mislabeled and/or rearranged. This is evident from their reported single-core score being much higher than that of the multi-core, which obviously makes no sense. In addition, regarding the GPU, their GFXbench 4 scores show the ‘Offscreen’ (rendered at 1080p) results being far worse than ‘Onscreen’ (rendered at Quest 2's display resolution), which again does not add up at all, even if we were to consider the possibility of some sort of bug where it only renders at the resolution for a single eye. Due to these inconsistencies throughout the benchmark section of this review, GSMArena’s Quest 2 benchmark results cannot be trusted enough to be used as valid data for this post.

(Section 4.1) The AMD A9 9820 APU – An Xbox One SoC for PC?
So now with more understanding of the Quest 2’s capabilities, how will we be able to compare a Quest 2 and an Xbox One S?
For this we will again need to be able to quantify the performance of an Xbox One S first. Thankfully, a very useful gem has been uncovered since Part 1 was written. In late 2020, a mysterious motherboard with an even more mysterious AMD “A9-9820” APU soldered onboard was listed on the Chinese site AliExpress, with rumours circulating the web that this could be a modified Xbox One (Original) SoC for PC use. This mysterious APU was never officially released directly consumers, and given its model designation, it was speculated this model was developed and manufactured years ago. Doing a quick search revealed a 3DMark leak from early 2019 that shows the AMD A9-9820 APU as part of a family of three closely related AMD products, the other two being the ‘RX-8125’ and ‘RX-8120’ (not to be confused with unrelated "FX-8120" AMD CPU) with advertised base/boost clocks of 2.3Ghz/2.395Ghz and 1.7Ghz/1.795Ghz respectively.

Motherboard with AMD A9-9820 APU
Only very recently, several Youtube channels and tech reviewers have managed to get their hands on these units and can now confirm that the A9-9820 is indeed essentially a modified Xbox One (2013) APU for PC. The related RX-8125 and RX-8120 in fact appear to represent the same CPU as onboard the A9-9820. More specifically each designation is not itself a different model of CPU but instead represent one of the two clock speeds the CPU on the A9 is able to operate at, with the RX-8120 mode at base clock speed and RX-8125 at boost clock speed, with the A9-9820 being able to switch between these two states automatically by default. At roughly the same time as the AliExpress listing, a prebuilt budget PC marketed as the ‘Chuwi Aerobox’ from the Chinese brand Chuwi came to light. Also powered by the A9-9820 APU it was set to be released in 2020 for the East Asian market. It is now believed that the motherboards listed on AliExpress were intended to be installed in Aerobox units, but were sold as spare parts for whatever reason.

Chuwi Aerobox - PC with AMD A9-9820 APU

Thanks to the Youtube channel Socket Sanctuary, the techblog The Chip Collective, and twitter user momomo_us (Link) we have a great idea of what’s under the hood of an A9-9820 motherboard. Linustechtips also briefly covers this SoC in their video. Furthermore, tech website Anandtech has managed to receive a fully assembled and functioning unit of a Chuwi Aerobox and together we are able to derive more data that will help us compare the Quest 2 against the Xbox One S more accurately (https://www.anandtech.com/show/16336/installing-windows-on-an-xbox-one-s-apu-the-chuwi-aerobox-review). Exactly like the original Xbox One of 2013, the A9-9820 has a die size of 363mm2, a CPU with 8 Jaguar cores and was manufactured in 2014 (the same time-frame as when the original Xbox Ones were still being produced). Even the integrated GPU of the A9-9820 was identified as an “RX-350” with the code-name “Kryptos”. While the Xbox One’s GPU was code-named “Durango”, the “Kryptos” code-name is very significant as it was the exact code-name used for the Xbox One console as a whole before its release, further reinforcing the likelihood that this is indeed an Xbox One SoC.

(Section 4.2) A9-9820 = Xbox One
So how close is it? Despite the similarities, there are several very important differences worth noting. Firstly, the CPU on the A9-9820 is able to boost from its base clock of 1.75GHz to 2.35GHz by default, whereas on the Xbox One/S they are fixed at a 1.75Ghz, meaning the A9’s CPU will no doubt perform better by default. Secondly, in the case of the A9-9820, the GPU’s render config readings appear to be inconsistent from one reviewer to the next. In Socket Sancturary’s video of the motherboard-only unit, the render configuration appears to show readings of 384:24:8 (shader units, texture mapping units (TMUs), and render output units (ROPs) respectively) with an undisclosed number of compute units (CUs). This configuration also happens to be exactly half the render config values of the GPU in an Xbox One/S which has 768:48:16 (with 12 CUs). In both Anandtech and The Chip Collective’s review of the Aerobox however, the readout displays 896 shader units and 14 CUs which is what we would expect from an unconstrained Xbox One S GPU as it is well known that a number of shader units, TMUs and CUs are factory disabled on the console. Based on these readouts the full render config is likely to be 896:56:16 in line with other AMD GPUs with the same number of shader units. The Chip Collective in their post highlight that the 14 CU readout for the Aerobox is likely false, as their calculation makes it more probable that the Aerobox also has 2 CUs disabled, leaving 12 like the Xbox One S. This seems to suggest that the Aerobox comes with a fully unconstrained APU apart from the 2CUs, while those that were sold only the motherboard assembly appear have a good portion of their render units disabled for unknown reasons. In any case we can expect the Aerobox GPU to be theoretically more powerful than an Xbox One S’.
Another mysterious aspect of the “RX-350” GPU is its designation, as it is and integrated GPU model that has not been seen before. The designation implies that it is related to the discrete R7-350 desktop GPU first released in 2015 and built on AMD’s GCN 1.0 architecture, as no other known GPU model has an R prefix with a 350 suffix. Even on the official product page for the Chuwi Aerobox, the GPU is listed as a “R7-350”, although inconsistent with the listing as the “RX-350” on the specifications page of the same site, suggesting a type-o. The Chip Collective, having investigated further, state that through their calculations, the GPU is most certainly not an R7-350, and it is most likely a “Bonaire” (GCN2.0) based GPU. This conclusion is based on the tested float performance value (teraflops) of the “RX-350” and using its reported render config, CU count and required clock speed to achieve that stated float performance as a comparison against existing discrete AMD R-series graphics cards. Based on these, the “RX-350” sways much closer to the GCN 2.0 “Bonaire” based R7 260/360 GPUs and not the GCN 1.0 based R7 250/350 models. Reviewing their findings, we can also reach the same conclusion and this is further supported by an early article covering the Xbox One by renowned game tech site Digital Foundry. We can even add a supporting theory, that given that the Xbox One, R7 250 and R7 260 were released in 2013 (and at that point the R7 300 series had not even been announced yet), the “RX-350” was most probably a working title and placeholder designation for a GCN 2.0 based GPU that was used for both the Xbox One and was also intended to be the basis for the replacement of the R7-250. In actuality, what appears to have happened instead was the “RX-350” designation (and only the designation) was recycled and applied to a 2015 re-release of their GCN1.0 based R7 250 model, repackaged as the “R7 350”. All in all, we can be confident from these findings that the “RX-350” GPU in the Aerobox/A9-9820 APU is indeed not an R7 350.
Another difference between the Aerobox and Xbox One S GPUs is clock speed which is reported as 985MHz on the Aerobox, as opposed to the Xbox One S’ 914MHz (853Mhz on the original Xbox One). A significant difference which would inevitably lead to an expected performance advantage for the Aerobox. Next, the Xbox One S consoles features 32 MB of ultra-highspeed ESRAM to help minimise bandwidth bottlenecking and to compensate for its use of slower 8GB of DDR3 as its main memory. The A9-9820 APU on the other hand has no onboard ESRAM and relies solely on whatever DDR3 RAM is installed, creating a potential memory bandwidth bottleneck. It also appears that on the A9, only up to 2GB of the installed RAM can be allocated to the GPU as VRAM. Whether this implies that a similar cap is in place for the Xbox One/S GPU is unclear but given its release at a time when 2GB discrete graphics cards were the norm in higher-end gaming GPUs, it appears likely. We could theorise that at the very most, only half the total memory would be allocated to the GPU as the rest would be needed for other tasks (so up to 4GB total allocated for the Xbox One GPU in an extreme case perhaps, but this is in theory). Lastly, pretty much all who have reviewed the A9-9820 highlight a lack of driver support for its GPU, with many of the drivers being extremely dated and prone to crashes, which is not a huge surprise given that this SoC was unlikely to have been designed to run Windows 10 in 2020 and beyond. This poses a serious problem when benchmarking games on this APU as seen in Anandtech’s review, where the Aerobox performs nowhere near Xbox One levels in games.

(Section 4.3) ‘Building’ our Xbox One S equivalent
These findings confirm that the A9-9820 in the Chuwi Aerobox is indeed a modified and virtually unlocked/unconstrained version of the APU in the Xbox One S. Despite this, we cannot use the Aerobox/A9-9820 as a whole as a fair stand-in for an Xbox One S. The GPU specs on paper are close but not close enough and the driver issues would mean any GPU benchmark would be unlikely to reflect the true capabilities of the actual hardware. Thankfully, with the data gathered from studying the A9, we can identify what can be used instead.

As previously mentioned, the RX-8120 CPU mode is advertised to cap at a peak of 1.795Ghz, however, by switching the A9-9820 into RX-8120 mode, this in fact caps it at 1.75Ghz instead, giving it identical specifications to the Xbox One S CPU, which we can use as an ideal stand-in for our CPU comparison. This CPU configuration has only very recently been benchmarked and the results show “Single-core: 222, Multi-Core: 1379”.

RX-8120 CPU - Geekbench 5 CPU Benchmark Results (Source)
For the GPU, given that we have identified the onboard graphics as an GCN2.0 Bonaire based system but with several render units and CUs disabled, we can compare it to other discrete GCN 2.0 models with similar specifications. The most obvious pick would be the R7 260 given its similar release date as well as its identical render configuration and CU count to the Xbox One’s (not to mention it is also one model up from the R7 250 as the “RX-350” is theorised to have intended to be). The R7 260 also has a bigger brother called the R7 260X which like the “RX-350” has all its renders units unlocked but with all 14 CUs as well, giving it a closer match to the Aerobox’s unlocked GPU, although this is no longer relevant for our purposes as we are looking for the Xbox One S equivalent, not the Aerobox.
Going back to the standard R7 260, again we see several differences between this GPU and the Xbox One S’ with the former clocked much higher at 1000MHz, and also utilising GDDR5 giving it 96GB/s of bandwidth. Therefore, even with just the clock speed advantage alone we can expect this GPU to perform significantly better than an Xbox One S. Unfortunately, no GFXBench results for the R7 260 were available, but the near-identical R7 360 GPU would work just as well for our purposes. The R7 360 is essentially a repackaged R7 260 but with a 1050mhz boost clock, using the 2015 version of “Bonaire” known as “Tobago” (also GCN 2.0). The important thing is that the GPUs we use for our calculation feature the same architecture, render config and number of compute units as the Xbox One S. Looking at a full list of AMD’s GCN 2.0 releases we can identify another GPU that looks to be even closer to the spec of the Xbox One S and that is the AMD FirePro W5100, again a Bonaire based GPU.

List of mentioned GCN 2.0 GPUs (Note: Radeon R7 360 boost clock of 1050MHz not shown on this chart). (Source)
On release, the W5100 was marketed as a professional workstation GPU but its specs show that is also essentially a R7 260 but with a lower clock speed at 930MHz and double the memory at 4GB. All other specifications including 96GB/s GDDR5 bandwidth appear identical between the two. With the clock speed being only 16Mhz faster than the Xbox One S GPU, we can surmise that the W5100 would perform just marginally better in games, but this is not without a few caveats. Firstly, while the W5100 performs slightly worse than the R7 360 as you will see below, we do not know how much of this gap is kept relatively small thanks to the W5100’s 4GB of VRAM and whether there would be a bigger drop if the W5100 came with 2GB of RAM instead. We can only assume this difference would be negligible for these tests. Secondly, as both of these discrete GPUs utilise GDDR5 exclusively, we will also have to assume that this only gives a negligible advantage to what a true Xbox One S GPU with its ESRAM aided DDR3 would benchmark at, as there are no other GPUs with more similar specifications. In any case, based on the W5100’s superior specifications, the Xbox One S GPU would be expected to perform below, and not equal or above the W5100 in benchmarks.

Xbox One S PC Equivalent Specifications

AMD R7 360 vs AMD W5100 - GFXBench 5 GPU Benchmark Comparison (Source)

A quick check confirms the R7 360 outperforms the W5100 in GFXbench, so off we go. Using Aztec Ruins Offscreen results, both at 1080p and 1440p, we can use the same rate of change formula as earlier to calculate the drop in clock frequency for every drop in frame between the R7 360 to the W5100, for each of the two resolutions. Extrapolating this to a GPU clocked at 914MHz gives us our ballpark Xbox One S GPU estimate, with a score of 1950 at 1440p, and 4854 at 1080p.

Xbox One S Estimated GPU Performance

(Section 5.1) Finally comparing the Quest 2 and Xbox One S
Now that we have the benchmark values for both the Quest 2 and Xbox One’s CPU and GPU, we can finally put them head-to-head.

Xbox One S vs Quest 2 Performance Comparison

CPU Comparison
When comparing the Quest 2’s CPU and the Xbox One S / RX-8120 CPU we see nearly double performance in single-core on the Quest 2. More importantly, seeing as the maximum performance capabilities are achieved when using all cores, we see near identical results on the multi-core scores with and ever so slight advantage for the RX-8120, although at a 1.6% difference this is well within the margin for error. From this we can conclude that the Quest 2’s CPU at the very least is as powerful as an Xbox One’s CPU if not more-so due to the superior single-core performance.
CPU Winner: Tie

GPU Comparison
For the GPU we see the Xbox One S as the clear winner with a GPU that is 60-70% more powerful than the Quest 2 (or the Quest 2 having a 37-41% weaker GPU than the Xbox One S). With such a large gap on this key component, the Quest 2 is in no way able to perform to the level the Xbox One S can reach.
GPU Winner: Xbox One S

RAM Comparison:
The onboard RAM can easily be compared using memory capacity and memory bandwidth which are listed throughout the web. The Xbox One S features 8GB of DDR3 with 256bits at 2133Mhz, resulting in a memory bandwidth of 68.3GB/s as well as an additional 32MB of high speed ESRAM at 219GB/s. The Quest 2’s RAM is specified as 6GB of LPDDR5 with 16bits at 2750Mhz, resulting in a bandwidth of 44GB/s. Even when excluding the ESRAM, this gives the Xbox One S a clear edge with 33% more memory capacity and 55% higher memory bandwidth. This essentially means the Xbox One S is able to load assets quicker and store more of them on the fly than the Quest 2 can.
RAM Winner: Xbox One S

Bonus: Ryzen AMD Ryzen 3400G vs Xbox One S (Section 6.1)
Performance Comparison with Vega 11 included (Sources: CPU, GPU)
Before we conclude, lets address one last point. In the table above, we’ve included GFXBench results of the Vega 11 GPU%20Vega%2011%20Graphics&did=63140191&D=AMD%20Radeon(TM)%20Vega%2011%20Graphics), the same model onboard an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G APU. In Part 1 we established the 3400G’s CPU performance is on par with the (unconstrained) XR2’s Kryo 585 CPU, and that the GPU’s were relatively comparable with a slight advantage to the Vega 11 (based on the more limited ‘3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited Graphics’ benchmark scores). Using GFXbench this time, we do in fact see similar results again, although with a slightly larger performance advantage to the Vega 11. So, if the Xbox One GPU is more capable than the XR2’s Adreno 650 GPU as well as AMD’s Vega 11 GPU, how is it that the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G APU performs better in actual games than the Xbox One S as mentioned in Part 1? This is highly likely due to the much more powerful CPU on the 3400G, with performance that is more than double that of the Xbox One S CPU (RX-8120). This allows the 3400G to perform better in game overall despite its slightly weaker GPU, utilising its CPU to help overcome the GPU disadvantage, especially in more CPU demanding titles.

Conclusion (Section 7.1)
So, there we have it. The Quest 2 is undoubtedly not as powerful as an Xbox One S, contrary to the initial claim made in Part 1. This is mostly due to the significant down-clocking of both the CPU and GPU featured on the Quest 2, a design and engineering decision made for the purposes of preserving battery life and preventing overheating. Despite similar CPU performance as the Xbox One S even after it’s down-clock, the Quest 2’s significantly less capable GPU and lower memory bandwidth prevent it from being able to achieve comparable performance as a system as a whole. Therefore, we can also conclude that the Quest 2 is not able to achieve the performance we’d expect of an eight-generation home console.
In regards to the XR2 SoC however, we can still see that when the chipset is unconstrained, it is able to achieve similar CPU performance and slightly lower GPU performance to that of an AMD 3400G APU. Given the 3400G’s comparable if not, superior game performance to an Xbox One S (in Part 1), had the Quest 2 featured and unconstrained XR2 and if that were to be possible, we would expect to see more comparable performance to that of an Xbox One S.

Thank you very much for reading.In Part 3 we will discuss why Quest 2 games look the way they do, what to expect in future Quest releases and whether we can expect ports of some of the most popular PCVR titles. It will also be much shorter, I promise!
