    So I'm sure when they do cooling it will play games at -3°C what's taking them so long

      Vegetaholic, 25 Jul 2022Lol, another genus on the keyboard. A15 or A16 about 5 time... moreNot sure why your cherry picking the switch out of the equation

      The point here is the iPhone has all this power and is not distributed to used so it's essentially just going to waste

      Why have the fastest car on the planet to go to the supermarket

        DaFink, 25 Jul 2022You have made me chuckle…emulate switch 3ds games!?!?…..🤦‍♂... moreClearly the GPU going to waste on Facebook is something Better to do then.

        Somehow people have something better to do and yet so many people out here wasting time.

I mean I have many earphones but I use only wireless. I use wired with my laptop only. And for micro sd my phone has 256GB so no need to add micro sd. If it is interesting I can write down my earphones/headphones models.

                  Mobile gaming is being taken way to seriously, from emulating games that were never meant for the form factor to devices whose designs would look ridiculously over the top even in a Tron movie, and require you to attach an industrial fridge system to the back!

                  Just play Candy Crush or Angry Birds etc whilst on the loo or waiting for bus like normal people ffs!

That is like saying it can run GTA 5 but of course no mobile can do that level of gaming, regardless of the processor in it

                        Remains to be seen how long apple updates the iPhone 14, because it will have the same hardware as the older 13. Therefore both should get the same updates

                          IpsDisplay, 25 Jul 2022Can't use the GPU to emulate switch 3ds games etc etc... moreLol, another genus on the keyboard. A15 or A16 about 5 times or more faster than 3ds. So your point makes no sense. A15 or A16 can litteraly emulate ps3 games, he is talking about shitty 3ds :D

                            you have to suffer, 25 Jul 2022problem is they cant buy a console but they can buy a phone... moreYou got me on that one 🤷 I would say nostalgia, but most of these kids haven’t been around long enough to ‘retro game’.

                            At the risk of dating myself, as someone who’s own video game experience goes back to the Atari VCS, all I can say is that in the case of the vast majority of games, the memories are better than the actual experience of going back.

Yes they all get efficient but also get 20-30% increase in performance so it zero it out. If you could keep same performance from iphone 6 chipset, every iphone would last 3 days or 4 with heavy usage, problem is, you people want more performance but also long battery life with every new model, which condradicts to each other.
