iPhone 7 Plus concept iconIt can Apple to give way to its Android competitors and can present iPhone with a multi-core processor? It is possible. There was speculation that iPhone 7 will offer up to a 6-core processor Apple A10, which would be more than what today's dual-core chip offers Apple A9. The processor itself could have, in addition to three times the number of cores, also support for multi-threading, which will benefit mainly iPad users who plan to intensively use iPad multitasking Air 2 or iPad Pro. There is no need to doubt the several-fold increase in performance, after all, the processor Apple The A9 brought an improvement of 70% over the A8 and an increase of up to 90% in graphics performance.

Processor manufacturing Apple The A10 should be shared again by two companies, Samsung and TSMC. The Taiwanese manufacturer should have a better position and be the primary chip maker, with both manufacturers making the processor using the 14-nm FinFET process as the chip is made Apple A9. Interestingly, however, TSMC uses a 9-nm process for its A16 chips, which may slightly affect the battery life, but it is not as big a difference as between the 14- and 28-nm process. In the end, you don't need to get your hopes up too much, it's already dual-core iPhone it overtakes eight-core Samsungs and HTCs in benchmarks and speed tests, and above all, it has a higher-quality optimized system that can cope even with weaker hardware on paper.
