On Tuesday, Apple unveiled the new CPU that powers itsiPad Airfourth generation. It responds to the sweet name of A14 Bionic. According to the manufacturer, this component is approximately 40% more efficient than the previous version. But last year it was the A12 Bionic SoC. By transposing the official values communicated by the brand, we can therefore deduce that if the iPhone 12 is entitled to the same part, it would be 16% faster.
The performance of its GPU, for its part, would not exceed 9% growth. But likeiOS 14is developed in conjunction with the processor and the A13 Bionic is already particularly fast, we should not notice any difference in daily use. Especially when we know thatthe iPhone 12 could have 6 GB of RAM.
A little gem of technology
The new Apple A14 processor is composed ofsix hearts, supported by the artificial intelligence of the Neural Engine. Under the hood, there are 11.8 billion transistors. This is 38% more than the 8.5 billion of the Apple A13.
In addition, the youngest is engraved bythe supplierTSMC with an accuracy offive nanometers. This is the best you can find on the market to date, regardless of the competition.
