The new iPhone Xs models use the new A12 Bionic chip with six cores. It works significantly more efficiently than its predecessor. In addition, the chip was manufactured for the first time in a 7 nm design.
Apple says that the new processor is 15 percent faster than its predecessor. But that's only half the truth. The difference in speed between the iPhone X and iPhone Xs cannot be seen by simply opening apps. It's different with portrait mode. The processing of selfies is significantly faster on the iPhone Xs.
A12 Bionic close behind desktop CPUs
The well-known website Anandtech has taken a closer look at Apple's new super chip. The result is astonishing. The A12 Bionic is 40 percent faster than its predecessor, the A11 chip.
Why Apple states a modest 15 percent speed increase in the brochure remains unclear. Anandtech According to the company, the A12 chip's performance is close to that of the best computer CPUs. In addition, the A12 is not only faster, but also more energy efficient compared to competitors. The camera has also been tested and delivers what it promises. The support of the A12 Bionic improves image calculation and analysis. This guarantees even better photos.
