They specifically made comparisons to the A8 chip (in the 6 and 6+) during the event and emphasized the speed increase. Apple knows their true problem is getting old iPhone users to upgrade.
Also, did you see the event? Not the same phone at all.
Wide color, awesome new camera and dropping it in the toilet might be enough.
- yoodenvranx 10y ago> emphasized the speed increase Isn't the iPhone 6 already "fast enough" for end users? My current phone is a Moto G 2014 which is still good enough for all my use cases.
- sanswork 10y agoDo you play a lot of games on your phone?
- yoodenvranx 10y agoI play tons of games on my phone but it's usually only games like Solitaire and similar 2d games.
- 72deluxe 10y agoIt would be interesting to know if they were just reimplmenting Android's View OnPaint and doing it in 2D land or getting an OpenGL context and drawing it 2D in there. I wonder what the battery differences would be like.
- xiaopanga 10y agoDo people play a lot of graphics intensive games on phones?
- PacketPaul 10y agoI do and the battery only last an hour. We need bigger batteries. CPU speed is never the issue.
- jonlucc 10y agoNaive question: do faster cores perform slower tasks with more efficiency? In other words, if a game uses 80% of the old processor, but only 50% of the new one, is there an impact on the battery life just by being a faster CPU?
- smileysteve 10y agoYes. Especially with multiple cores, gets more work done quicker and the core can shutdown. The core can also scale down where it is presumably more efficient.
- sanswork 10y agoIt is definitely becoming more common.
- jandrese 10y agoThe benchmark should be: How long can the phone run Pokemon Go before the battery dies.
