I would love to see the pricing of their chips to understand the upgrade cycle. It looks like A10->A11 transitioned them from 16 to 10 nm, I wonder if the newer process is still appreciably more expensive for them?
- ksec 7y ago1. Yes. 2. 10nm is a short term node, only as a stepping stone to 7nm. 3. A-11 would move it too close to Pro. Since they did not mention EUV in their A13 presentation, I am betting A13 is actually a 7nm+ design. And all 7nm are long term node, iPad upgrade path might look more like A10 >> A12 > A13 over the span of next 3 - 4 years.
