Apple's next-gen A10 chipset rumored to have hexa-core CPU

23 September, 2015
The A9 has barely made its debut in the iPhone 6s and we're already seeing the first rumor about its successor.

Sort by:

This is why its chips benchmark poorly in multi-core runs compared to the Android competition. The A10 will be manufactured on either a 14nm or a 10nm process. The manufacturing partner for it could be Samsung, We have a guide for the setup, which you can find on the following link: https:[url=https://www.techsupportdubai.com/led-tv-repair/] Tv Repair[/url]
but TSMC and Intel haven't been ruled output either. The source of the information is apparently the same person who accurately described the Apple A9 chipset before it was official, so all of this could pan out. Then again, we're pretty early in the development phase of the A10, so even if these details are true now, things may change in the future.

    If Apple offers me a free IPhone 7 Plus, I'll gladly test it for them free of charge.
    I will then either return it to them, if disappointed with their new device, and promise NOT to mock their product. If happy, I will gladly boast about their marvellous product.
    If I genuinely love Apple's IPhone 7 Plus, then the deal is that I keep this phone free of charge. I would be converted to Apple mobile phones for the first time ever, after never owning any Apple mobile phones, or any other Apple products for over 20 years.

        Fruit fans will go crazy for this but when Android increase the cores it's bash bash bash apple don't need that many cores.
        Why in that case is this appearing now and as usual years behind Android.
        Apple= substandard,out date,coppied & overpriced crap.

          Anonymous, 23 Sep 2015they are gonna produce the terminator chip!!!Terminator chip. Heh. I doubt that happen in our lifetime with Apple slow-mo style tech progress. I bet Samsung will produce the terminator chip first. Apple never done anything advanced. Their first iphone 3g used Samsung chip too.

                      They are just too locked down for me, I do not use windows or iOS just linux so I hated it since the original.

                      I have had multiple windows smartphones and i had i-phones since the first one; Then i tried android and 4-5 phones later I still use android.
                      My company uses i-phones, I get a new latest one every 2 years and I hardly ever use it (have 5s now) and i test it some time when i get it.
                      In the end i go out and buy an android phone and use the company sim but leave the i-phone on the side in case i drop the android or something just in case.

                      It is just personal preference, hardware is good enough on most of the smartphones.
