Apple A20 Pro
Apple's 2nm A20 Pro pairs a 4.93GHz 6-core CPU with a 7-core GPU and a 32-core Neural Engine, using new side-by-side die packaging borrowed from the M-series for better sustained performance. It debuts in the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
Pros
- Among the earliest smartphone chips built on TSMC's advanced 2-nanometer process
- 7-core GPU with hardware-accelerated ray tracing is up to 40% faster than the A19 Pro's
- Dual 16-core Neural Engine doubles the A19 Pro's on-device AI compute to 32 cores total
- 50% more memory bandwidth via a wider 96-bit LPDDR5X bus and new side-by-side die packaging
- Paired with Apple's own in-house C2 modem instead of a third-party chip
Cons
- Still a six-core CPU design, so multi-core gains lean heavily on higher clock speeds rather than more cores
- GPU throughput drops substantially under sustained load without active cooling
- Modem, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth remain separate chips rather than being integrated on the same die
