Apple's latest powerhouse, the A15 chip, has taken the automotive world by storm with its impressive performance boost over its predecessors, the A14 and A13. Although Apple showcased its superiority over Android's top contenders during the announcement, stating a 50% CPU lead and a 30% GPU advantage, without divulging detailed benchmarks, the numbers from real-life comparisons speak volumes.
As evidenced by the iPad mini 6 and its predecessor, the A15 has witnessed a significant 40% improvement in CPU performance, and an astonishing 80% leap in GPU capabilities. These leaps suggest a notable step forward in graphical processing capabilities. However, the CPU performance gains seem to be less substantial compared to the A14, as per Apple's presentation and industry experts' assessments.
To get a clearer understanding of the extent of the A15's CPU enhancement over A14, we turn to the GeekBench benchmark tests. These benchmarks provide a critical, quantitative perspective that allows us to delve deeper into the chips' comparative prowess. So, let's delve into these benchmark results to decipher the true extent of the A15's prowess and its leap over its predecessors.
