This is no doubt the most professional and in-depth review of the new iPhone's performance and efficiency. It makes other reviews look soooo shallow. Other reviewer simply talk about how it "feels" to use the phone, without showing almost any useful statistics. They really should aim for Geekerwan's level and step up.

[@JohnDiew]

While I like Geekerwan's technical deep dive, I still prefer how others talk about the real world usage and their personal input. If every tech review is just talking about the numbers then the whole platform is just having the same content

[@owenliu4780]

​@@JohnDiew Numbers are not just numbers. How numbers are produced; what numbers to present, and how to make numbers meaningful and form a story. These are all important questions to answer, and believe me, every creator will have different ideas on that. Geekerwan was the first channel to produce and organize the graph of the power-energy curve, and the actual performance of CPUs since SG888 aligned better with the curve than the single benchmark number. This is "different". For the battery life test, Geekerwan produced the automated scripts/robotics arm to mimic people's daily activity of multi-tasking on multiple APPs, which is more meaningful than recording the time playing KZbin videos as many reviewers did. And the number they produced simply aligns better. That is the art of using numbers from Geekerwan. Of course, good reviewers like MKBHD are also necessary, and Geekerwan simply admits that they are not good at evaluating screens, cameras, sounds, etc. But to be honest, cameras/sounds and many aspects of the phones can also be quantified and better presented to the customers. We actually need more professional reviewers on these aspects; similar to Geekerwan on SOC.

[@tomikun8057]

Amazing and detailed analysis as always! The only one doing proper SOC reviews. My takeaway is pretty much, not much has been improved, the E-Cores are actually quite impressive, and the soft eng and graphic programmers have done a phenomenal job, porting an actual game on a phone. Hell, you could run RE8 on the A15 just fine, but is gimped by ram. Also, while the chips quickly thermal throttles, I am amazed how it can run the game at a playable 30fps, ~4W.

[@jonathanpusar5931]

That part is less surprising if you’ve been paying attention to gaming performance on MacBook Airs ever since the M1. It’s limited by Mac OS, but the games that run natively are impressive. These smartphones can easily compete with x86 laptops (the iPad has been beating Windows in raw performance vs Intel for awhile).

[@NootNoot.]

@@jonathanpusar5931 That's true. At the end of the day, it all comes down to physics.

[@tommyle628]

I think it's not TSMC fault for not being good at improving to a better 3nm process, this is Apple's own choice to use a not-ready 3nm process, they knew it would be bad but keep pushing anyway. TSMC will make a better 3nm process, but should be 6 months plus from now. Awesome analysis, I watched both of your Chinese and English version, can't get enough of it haha

[@SergioWolf843]

In fact, it only turns in A18/19, that’s because TSMC had problems with N3, so it only had improvements in Density and not efficiency.

[@12pure]

Yeah, Apple's using N3B, N3 or N3X is not ready, and will not be ready any time soon, more like 8 months or so. My theory is that A17 is just a rewamped A16 for N3B, no actual architectural changes at all, except for 8GB RAM. Basically every single performance gain comes from N3B since the IPC gain is ~2%-3% (from few tweaks made from more transistors using the new litography). The high consumption came from iOS, Apple says, it's fixed in the new iOS update without performance losses, so it should be even 5% more efficient, Apple claims.

My key takeaways: *CPU:* - A17 performance cores are less efficient than A16 p-cores but can achieve more power with a lot more power draw - A17 efficiency cores are better power and efficiency-wise than A16 e-cores - Both are still generations ahead of Snapdragon: SD8 Gen2 comparable to an A14 (iPhone 12 Pro) *GPU:* - Still worse than Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, comparable with Mediatek Dimensity 9200+ - Achieves ~32fps in Resident Evil Village at 4W consumption, vs Steam Deck's ~37fps at 15W (actually impressive) *Battery life and thermals:* - Slightly worse than iPhone 14 Pro, while also running hotter Seems the 3nm process did not provide any meaningful upgrades over 5nm

[@Dwivil]

According to rumors, the SD8G3 chip is looking to be a pretty big step up. I really do hope to see a video on that SoC and see if those rumors are correct. You guys do great work and out of all the reviewers for all phones, I think you guys are the best in terms of being able to gauge the performance of a phone.

The iPhone 14 Pro actually performs mostly consistent 60fps now, after iOS 17.2, at the cost of extra power consumption.

This is however a much higher resolution visually compared to the older 14 pro.

Gotta wonder what was the point of getting to 3nm in the first place if the gains were not only minor but also inefficient… We might have hit the manufacturing wall of thermals at 4nm. Not great for the future of chipset performance gains in the future :/

[@BobMcBurger1]

3nm can perform multiple tasks simultaneously and use less energy. But do consider the fact that Apple always increases the speed of their chips, which in turn requires more energy. So trying to counteract what you are constantly improving isn't a walk in the park, yet they somehow do it year by year. Even if that may be marginal improvements. In the end, there are so many factors to consider in battery life. Including the level of intensity you put your phone through. Which many battery tests keep doing.

[@jonathanpusar5931]

@@BobMcBurger1 efficiency is efficiency. I don’t remember a single dye shrink in manufacturing done before not having a benefit in power consumption/power draw OR performance (and sometimes both). Neither is….concerning.

[@BobMcBurger1]

@@jonathanpusar5931 Well, iPhone is the first smartphone with a 3nm chip. So we have nothing else to properly compare it to which has the same chip size.

[@jonathanpusar5931]

@@BobMcBurger1 exactly, so it’s concerning. Especially since Apple has a huge department working on chip design. It’s not like they’re some two bit company with no success figuring shit out They spent a lot of money securing first dibs on 3nm. No way did they spend that money if they intended on a small improvement. There must be an engineering reason we don’t know about…. I work in consumer goods, and in this industry it’s super hard to get any kind of real incremental gains that isn’t accentuated by us marketers. They spend the $$$$$ because they thought the ROI was worth it. Soooo….something is wrong

[@Ben21756]

@@BobMcBurger1 We can compare it with previous gen 4nm SoCs, the improvements are underwhelming. It isn't as efficient as we thought, and actually runs hotter.

Hey! The Mediatek Dimensity is back with insane 9300 Can you test them?!

[@KinoINFINITY]

12:08 8 gen 2 still beating apple on gpu using half amount of power Truly amazing Guess i have to wait for another iphone generation

[@zlonewolf]

The A17 yes. But the A16 is just as efficient as the SD gen 2 at worse gaming performance but better in everything else such as video editing, battery life and software security and 90 hz refresh rate optimization.

[@TheRealGigaCat]

the point is. What will we do with that GPU when apple doesn't support emulators. Its a complete waste.

[@KinoINFINITY]

​@@TheRealGigaCatyeah you are right But for this scenario I have redmagic 8 pro

[@jonathanpusar5931]

@@TheRealGigaCatit’s actually really easy to get emulators nowadays on iPhones. You don’t even have to jailbreak. I load Dolphin on my iPad all the time.

[@TheRealGigaCat]

@@jonathanpusar5931 all it has got is dolphin and ppsspp. There is nothing else. On the other side Android can emulate everything upto Nintendo switch. What I am trying to say is that iOS has a lack of apps itself. Developers don't take interest in it compared to Android where nearly all the emulators are open source and constant development goes on.. Not to mention the lack of proper file explorer in iOS. Android can even run some PC titles such as stray using box64 and DXVK translation layer. Same thing that steam deck uses. Even if iOS enables side loading. It will take years to reach where Android is in terms of community service.

[@Mrterran]

Dear god they even used a ROBOT ARM You don't see that everyday from tech reviewers, you guys have a new sub!

[@WiseGuyFTW]

This cannot be 3nm, there is something completely wrong with these chips given the insane power draw.

[@ramseyrodriguez8515]

Seems that indeed TSMC’s 3N is underperforming. Probably increased densities; but no meaningful power efficiency increase.

[@SWIFTIESCHN]

TSMC has 3E and 3B
