As was expected, Apple didn’t introduce the iPhone 12 during the Time Flies event, but it did announce the A14 Bionic – the chip that will power the upcoming phones.
The new chip is based on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)’s 5nm process and packs 11.8 billion transistors for improved performance and power efficiency. In comparison, the A13 silicon that’s inside the iPhone 11 is a 7nm chip and it contains 8.5 billion transistors.
Apple says the A14 is about 40 percent faster than the A12, on which the A13 has a 20 percent lead.
