- bdhess 5y agoThe A15 was released in September with the 2021 iPhone; the M1 was released in November 2020.
- nvrspyx 5y agoA15 was released with the iPhone 13 series this year, after the M1.
- YetAnotherNick 5y agoM1 isn't a generational leap for Apple. It is just 7% faster for single core than last year's iphone 12. Apple was already so far ahead of the competitors in the chip department for multiple years. https://browser.geekbench.com/ios-benchmarks https://browser.geekbench.com/ios-benchmarks

For CPU, lead the Cyclone, Typhoon, Twister, Hurricane, Monsoon, Vortex, Lightning and Firestorm architecture work. Chief Architect for Apple MAC hardware platform M1 Pro and M1 Max.
