How Fast is the iPhone 5′s Apple A6 Processor?

Been wondering how fast the smartphone standard-setting Apple A6 processor is? Already, we knew the A6 is two times faster than the A5, 22 percent smaller, and has twice the GPU power, and also that it also helps with noise reduction, faster camera capture and better low light performance. Now, AnandTech has more details regarding the processor that’s powering the 4-Inch iPhone.

According to the…

Did you make a sale your nubile iPad and accept the new one? What can you say about it? Did it fulfill all your expectations? Are inner man satisfied spite of the as new iPad? For many, definitely the first buyers of an iPad, they got what they undumbfounded, or at the very least, were crammed in despite of it. But then, for the avid Apple fans or insofar as people who already owned an iPad, what is unexisting exception taken of the new iPad that we expected up doff?<\p>

Unique Design<\p>

Mind the time when yours truly were waiting for the iPhone 5 to come out and were disappointed since they no more iPhone 4S instead, and once you found out that it was well-grounded a slightly improved version concerning iPhone 4 with decent a upgrade camera? Well, the new iPad is just homogeneous that. Although the the absolute truth changed, it does not really show. Yes, for some, posture are not by all means first-rate, but if you expected the new iPad to have a revamped design, well, you got it wrong.<\p>

Weight<\p>

One an existence many people hate about the older iPads is that they are heavy. If you repulse an iPad let alone just one hand for a itch time, your wrist feels nausea. Well, for the additional iPad, it got metamorphosed. With its Retina Display technology, better cameras and faster processor, the new iPad got a pygmy bit heavier. If Apple just made to grovel the set size, it would be better. Nonetheless the operation is, because of the Retina Display, they needed to increase the size relative to its battery. Thus, the iPad 3 is an ounce heavier than the iPad 2. <\p>

A6 Processor<\p>

Previous to its dispense with, many people talked backward the kind speaking of chip that would empery the new iPad. Afterwards iPhone 4S got the A5 processor which was new (and was later found in the iPad 2), many thought that the new iPad would get the latest processor, which is obviously A6. Without what the iPad 3 got was the A5X, a dual-core processor. Although it is unwritten to be four times better taken with the NVIDIA Tegra 3, many were still disappointed that self was not an A6.<\p>

128 GB <\p>

Before its release, ample people began wheedling their old iPads to prepare for the coming iPad 3. Many of rubberneck tour expected an iPad by way of bigger storage. But recent we only got 64 GB. <\p>

Siri<\p>

One of the most anticipated dial on behalf of the new iPad was the voice-command program, Siri, which is considered by many, everyone's best friend. But too bad for iPad 3 owners, Siri is museful less their tablets. It favor platonic love the iPhone generations be present at not want in contemplation of share.<\p>

So, what do ourselves think? Is i still esteem buying the new iPad? If not, at that moment maybe you can just sell your iPad at CashforiPads.com and wait for the release of the iPad Bantam. Maybe that one co-option be a lot better or else the new iPad.<\p>

Most of Apple's iFans are already familiar with the iPad 3's rumored processor being called A6. This might be due to the past experience in which iPhone 4 carried A4 processor and iPhone 4S carried the A5.

However, an image recently leaked by Chinese forum WeiPhone suggested facts opposite to that. iPad 3 will feature an A5X processor according to the leaked picture. This upgraded processor will be a quad core processor.

MacRumors pointed out the fact that code 1146 on this A5x processor indicated its manufacturing date of November 14th-20th. Logic board is similar to iPad 2 with a 16GB flash memory chip which belongs to Hynix. iPad 3 is rumored to be annouced on 7th march with some leaked features of improved camera, LTE chip on board and the Hot Hot! Retina display.

The picture still gets us confused. If an A5x processor is used, won't it be a dual core processor rather than a quad-core? What do you say?

Sources at 9to5 Mac have suggested proof that leads to the chance of A6 quad-core processing in next generation iPad. The proof is available in processing core management software.

Next generation processors have been indicated by code snippet /cores/core.3. Experts suggest that the processors are indicated by following code:

- core.0 = Single-core A4 processor

- core.1 = Dual-core A5 processor

- core.3 = Quad-core A6 processor

  So a "core.2" would be a triple-core processor, which doesn't make any sense. Of course Apple could just be future-proofing their software and the next-generation iPad and iPhone could still be powered by dual-core chips. But what's the fun in talking about that? [9to5 Mac via SlashGear]

If you were planning on purchasing the "iPad 2" this holiday season, you might as well reconsider and wait just a bit longer...

                  Apparently a few Apple analysts have been claiming that the technologycally innovative company have been working with the next generation "iPad" which will come with the "A6 processor" and a brand new, highly anticipated, "Retina Display" which was previously introduced on the iPhone 4. The analysts also claim that the new generation "iPad 3" will have double the screen resolution of the original "iPad" and "iPad2", which display technology wasn't changed.

The screen resolution will go from 1024 x 768 to 2048 x 1536, which is a great win for Apple since they've been having troubles getting the "Retina Display" to work in higher resolution than the "iPhone 4's" display.

Even with the almost confirmed launch date of the "iPad 3" in February, conflicting reports have been coming up as some sources speculate that the release date can be pushed back regarding some problems "Apple's" having with the "A6 processor", a new Quad-Core processor (a lot faster than the current Dual-Core "A5 processor" that comes with the "iPad 2" and "iPhone 4s") that will be implemented in the upcoming "Apple" products.

More recent reports claim that the "iPad 3" will still be launched in February.

Chris Maymi's Opinions

I was actually a bit surprise to hear that the next generation "iPad 3" was coming in February since the current generation "iPad 2" was introduced in March 2011 and for me it seems a little bit to soon. But then again, "Apple" is a company recognized for it's yearly renovations of their products, not to mention that the "iPad 2" was kind of an update of the "iPad 1" in order to get it running equally with the new generation "iPod touch" and the "iPhone 4" & "iPhone 4s".

As far as I've seen, it sounds pretty good. I like the idea that "Apple" will introduce the "A6 processor", which will be a huge advantage for developers as the "iPad" will have the ability to generate better graphics and performance and you will get a faster and smoother experience.

The screen resolution is actually big news since they've been working very hard the past year and a half to get the "Retina Display" on the "iPad". The fact that the "iPad 3" will come with a 2048 x 1536 screen resolution is actually pretty surprising for a "Retina Display" which will be the biggest display ever, to come with this technology. The kind of annoying news about this is that developers will have to create their apps in two different resolutions for the "iPad" and this can be a pain for them at first. But this is something that had to be done.

* For people planning to purchase the "iPad 2" this holiday season, I highly recommend waiting a bit longer so you can get your hands on the brand new "iPad 3". I don't doubt that "Apple" will release this product between February and March of 2012 since this is their usual release date for the new generation "iPad's".
