The news arrives from tipster Unknownz21, who shared the information on Twitter. Apparently, the A17 Bionic chipset on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will feature six CPU and GPU cores. The previous generation A16 Bionic featured six CPU cores, but only five GPU cores. So, the next-gen processor will feature an additional GPU core, which will likely help in offering improved performance in various tasks like gaming.

That’s not all, the A17 Bionic will even see a rise in clock speed from 3.46GHz to 3.7GHz. The new A-series chipset will be based on the more advanced 3nm process, which brings upgrades in energy efficiency as well as overall performance. However, the tipster claims that Apple’s upcoming iPhone 15 Pro series will only feature 6GB of RAM. Previous rumors had hinted at the memory rising to 8GB RAM, but Unknownz21 states otherwise.

The memory is an LPDDR5 RAM module that will reportedly be supplied by Samsung and Micron. The tipster states that the bump to 8GB RAM on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max is not completely impossible but rather unlikely. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take this news with a pinch of salt for now.
