This is not even remotely true. The increase between performance in A5 vs A6 was greater than 100%. Or the 41% increase in Geekbench multi from the A10 to the A11. Versus the 14% increase in multi-core from last year's iPhone to the current one. The performance has never increased by the same amount year over year. It improves drastically in some years, and modestly in others. People get disappointed when Apple fails to deliver the performance gains they have in years past. Edit: Also the [sic] is unnecessary. Just say you don't like the publication if you disagree with their writing that much.
