iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus to jump straight to A18 chip, rumor says

19 October 2023
They would skip the A17, and for the first time in a few years all four iPhones would have a similarly named chip.

Sort by:

So it'll go out like this:

iPhone 16: A18 chip
iPhone 16 Pro: A18 Pro chip

        In my country the cheapest iphone 15 is the equivalent of $950 US. This for a brand new phone with an old processor. Next year it will be $50 more for a mid range processor.

        I have never bought an iPhone and next year will be no different.

              I bet the A18 that's to come with the 16 & 16 plus is definitely an A17 pro, but apple Jst want people to think they are no longer using last year's chipset which they really are
              As usual fan boys would still buy, cause they believe everything apple says 😂

                Please make a I phone like a transparent glass. Really it will be very useful and fashionable, people will like without hesitation.

                  Only the rich get to experience 4GHz of greatness on a phone with no proper cooling. And the rich will probably and only use those precious Gigahertz to browse instagram and take mirror selfies anyways, so what's the point of 4Ghz apart from making benchmarkers and phone geeks splodge out of exitement and slowing down older chipsets to "save on power".

                  I hope the A18 Pro gets a 2P+6E Octa Core Upgrade instead of just a slight GHz increase or an extra GPU core, Samsung has already revived Deca Core Processors with Exynos 2400 and Apple is still stuck on 6 Cores.

                      I can see some difference for the GPU core.

                        If the Apple Watch S-series SOC is any indication, nothing stops Apple of rebranding older SOC as newer.

                        However, given the multicore and GPU performance of the A17 Pro; can be suggested an underclocked or binned version as A18, with lower multicore and less GPU cores.

                          my guess… A17 Pro = A18 . 🤷🏻‍♂️
