Usually, Apple at its event in September of each year unveils the latest models of iPhones, but the year 2020 is not the same for most years, so this year the company had to announce the latest models of Apple Watch and iPad. However, Apple decided to unveil its new processor, Apple A14 Bionic, at this event and not wait for the iPhone 12 Series lineup to be announced.
This is the first processor in the world to be manufactured using 5 nm manufacturing technology, and this is what makes it outperform the competing processors for Android devices that still use 7 nm manufacturing technology. The new Apple A14 Bionic processor includes six cores in total, two high-performance cores to handle the most complex tasks, and four medium-performance cores to handle the least complex tasks. However, the strange thing about it is that Apple chose to compare this processor with the Apple A12 Bionic processor instead of the Apple A13 Bionic processor that was launched last year, and it has stated that its new processor has 40 percent better performance at the central processor level. , And 30 percent better GPU performance.
However, given that Apple said last year that the Apple A13 Bionic processor delivers 20 percent better performance in all aspects compared to the Apple A12 Bionic processor, this means that the new Apple A14 Bionic processor houses a 17 percent faster CPU. And a better graphics processor by 8 percent compared to the Apple A13 Bionic processor.
This is not a huge upgrade, but the new manufacturing process has made the new Apple A14 Bionic processor more energy-efficient, and this makes it use less energy.
While Apple has maintained its tradition and hasn't talked about the frequency of this processor, it does promise the same 10 hours of battery life on the new iPad Air 2020. However, this new tablet includes a 28.6Wh battery, while the previous generation came with a 30.8Wh battery, which indicates a decrease in energy consumption by 8 percent. We're not sure how much power the new screen uses and how much power the processor consumes, but that still bodes well for the battery life of the iPhone 12 Series lineup.
Regardless, Apple also mentioned that its new flagship processor includes 11.8 trillion transistors, a four-core graphics processor, as well as a 16-core neural processing unit (artificial intelligence), and a very advanced image and video processor. Besides, Apple also mentioned that the new Apple A14 Bionic processor is capable of processing 11 trillion operations per second, and features a special security chip to deal with sensitive data, including Face ID data, and other sensitive data.
