iPhone 14 and 14 Max will use the rebranded A15 chip

Apple will probably add some minor parameters to the A15 chip and change its name to A16 to complement the iPhone 14 and 14 Max.

Account Indonesia ApplePro Leak – which accurately predicts the launch date of the 2021 iPad Pro and iPhone SE 3 – said that Apple was having a hard time producing the new A and M chips due to the general semiconductor industry crisis. Therefore, in the upcoming iPhone 14 series, the company is prioritizing the new generation A chip model for the two Pro versions, while the two cheaper models will still use the A15 chip.

However, to avoid criticism, the company will update the parameters on the A15, especially regarding the graphics core. The new chip will be named A16, produced on a 5 nm process and equipped for iPhone 14, 14 Max.

Meanwhile, the new generation A chip for iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max will be called A16 Pro or a similar name. This model is manufactured on a 4 nm process with superior parameters compared to the current A15.

PhoneArena evaluate this information well, because Apple has done the same. For example, A15 on iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max has a five-core GPU, while the iPhone 13 and 13 mini models have quad-core GPUs. The chips on the Watch Series 6 released in 2020 and the Watch Series 7 in 2021 are basically the same in that they are based on the same CPU architecture, but since there are still slight internal differences, Apple doesn’t mind calling the Series 7 chips a new chip.

Based on GizChina, the A15 still tops the rankings in terms of power compared to the rest of the smartphone market, so Apple is in no rush to equip a new chip that is too superior for a non-Pro series model. In addition, the reuse of modified chips will help companies save significant costs.

Some sources have previously predicted that the new generation iPhone will have four versions: the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 and 16 Pro, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max and 14 Pro Max. Apple will no longer be releasing a mini version. According to “rumor expert” Ming-chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 and 14 Max will continue to use the same A15 chip as the iPhone 13 or variants with more graphics cores. Only two versions of the Pro series are equipped with the A16 chip.

set of four iPhone 14″ expected to be announced in September. The two Pro versions will have a tablet-shaped screen design and a round hole, while the other two models will still use “rabbit ears”. The device has been upgraded to the rear camera of the device from 12 megapixels to 48 megapixels.
