Apple's New A7 Chip Is Apple's First 64-Bit SoC
During today's iPhone keynote, Apple announced the new A7 chip, which powers the sick features of Apple's latest flagship handset. Let's take a look under the glass at the speedy monster that makes the magic possible- and will open the door to all sorts of new apps in the future.
The new A7 is Apple's first 64-bit system-on-chip, which as the company quickly clarified, means that apps in iOS 7 will also be 64-bit. The chip features graphics that are 56-times faster than those on the original iPhone. It also enables CPU performance up to 40-times faster than the original iPhone, and twice as fast as the iPhone 5's A6. How far we've come!
