A17 Pro

All current Apple processors are compared in an updated chart, mixing in iPhone, iPad, and Mac chips to show their relative power in benchmark tests – including, of course, the new A17 Pro.

One standout result is that the iPhone 15 Pro is almost on a par with the entry-level MacBook Air when it comes to processing power …

Following many complaints about overheating issues affecting iPhone 15 Pro models, Apple released the iOS 17.0.3 update on Wednesday to address these issues. According to the company, the overheating was caused by software, not by hardware or design flaws. Apple also said that it wouldn’t reduce the A17 Pro chip’s performance with the update – but is that true? We tried to find out with some preliminary tests.

During the iPhone 15 Pro event, Apple used Resident Evil gameplay to show off the GPU power of the A17 Pro chip. Now Capcom has released pricing and availability details for the two Resident Evil titles that will run on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Both games will be free to demo and require an in-app purchase to fully unlock.

Last week we saw the first Geekbench results of the A17 Pro showing that the CPU performs slightly better than Apple claims. Now we’ve got a look at the first GPU benchmark results and it looks like the performance matches and exceeds what Apple’s promised.

The new iPhones are finally here, and when it comes to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, they both come with the new A17 Pro chip, the first to be built using the 3 nanometer process. Apple had already confirmed that the A17 Pro is up to 20% faster than the A16 Bionic, and now the first Geekbench results give us a better idea of just how much faster the new chip is.

Apple has officially announced the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max during its “Wonderlust” fall event. The new Pro models use a brushed titanium case in place of stainless steel.
