Apple’s 2021 iPhones come with the A15 Bionic chip.
One of the biggest advantages of Apple creating its own chips is that it can maximize power and efficiency, creating iPhones that stand out from the crowd and deliver superior performance. With 5-nanometre technology, A15 Bionic — the fastest chip in a smartphone — features a new 5-core GPU in the Pro lineup which allows Apple to offer consumers the fastest graphics performance in any smartphone – Apple says it’s up to 50% faster than the leading competition, meaning users can use video apps and enjoy high-performance gaming experiences without worrying about their smartphone dropping out.
The chip comes packed with a 16-core Neural Engine capable of 15.8 trillion operations per second, allowing for even faster machine learning computations for third-party app experiences, as well as noise reduction and tone mapping.
iOS 15, releasing on September 20, was designed with the A15 Bionic chip in mind, and consumers should find that apps are even punchier than they were with iOS 14 and the A14.
Thanks to enhanced optimizations, the A15 Bionic allows for more power-efficient components on the iPhone, and alongside a larger battery, this year’s iPhones offer the most battery capacity than on any previous model. Naturally, the larger iPhone 13 Pro Max offers the longest battery life on the iPhone, lasting two and a half hours longer than the iPhone 12 Pro Max – the iPhone 13 Pro offers one and a half hours of additional battery life, as well.
