Today Apple unveiled its M6 chip , the first of a new chip generation that will soon include iPhone 18 Pro’s A20 Pro. Here’s what the M6 reveals about iPhone 18 Pro gains to expect.
Apple has unveiled two surprising products today: the Mac mini and Mac Studio, both featuring the company's new M6 chip. This chip, built using cutting-edge 2 nm process technology, promises significant improvements in performance and power efficiency over its predecessor. The M6 chip also introduces a Dual 16-core Neural Engine, offering up to 2x the peak compute power compared to previous generations.
This Neural Engine is expected to be carried over to the upcoming A20 Pro chip in the iPhone 18 Pro. The M6 chip boasts a new 12-core CPU complex, including 2 super cores, 4 performance cores, and 6 efficiency cores, delivering the world's fastest single-threaded performance and up to 1.2x faster multithreaded performance compared to its predecessor.
While the exact year-over-year improvements for the iPhone 18 Pro are difficult to predict, the focus on performance and efficiency is expected to be prominent in Apple's upcoming device.
