They are talking about improving the processor, and ARMv8 is a (or rather the) 64-bit ARM instruction set. Should Apple have instead talked about registers and wider SIMD, better double floating point, etc? 64-bit is just shorthand for that.
- derefr 13y agoExactly. We went through this exact same marketing with game consoles, years ago. The N64 was a 64-bit game console! What did that mean? Who cares, it's four times as much as a SNES, and twice as much as a Playstation!
