The new processors will not mean a great leap in quality
Even so, they promise a 15% improvement in performance and support for LPDDR5 RAM
At the moment it is believed that the new iPhone 14 will divide its specifications into two. On one side will be pro models, which will have the new Apple A16 processor, better cameras and a different screen. On the other hand there will be the models normal that will continue with the A15 chip.
This distinction was already given today, since the models of iPhone 13 had one less GPU core and less RAM. Now, MacWorld and GSM Arena have worked to try to determine what will be the power of the new A16 chip. These chips represent a substantial improvement over the previous ones, but they are not a complete generational leap since the manufacturing process is very similar.
It is believed that the new A16 chip will be ostensibly larger: between 18,000 and 20,000 million transistors, compared to 15,000 million. In addition, they are going to switch to ARM version 9, which improves the performance of the cores. This translates into a very modest 15% performance improvementwith a similar configuration of 2 large performance cores and 4 small low-power ones.

In addition, the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max will use the new type of LPDDR5 RAM, which offers 50% more bandwidth than LPDDR4X and is also more energy efficient. Even so, they will continue to have only 6GB of RAM.
