General info

Supports 64-bit

✔Apple A17 Pro

A 32-bit operating system can only support up to 4GB of RAM. 64-bit allows more than 4GB, giving increased performance. It also allows you to run 64-bit apps.

Has integrated graphics

✔Apple A17 Pro

With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.

semiconductor size

3nm

Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.

GPU clock speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The graphics processing unit (GPU) has a higher clock speed.

DirectX version

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

DirectX is used in games, with newer versions supporting better graphics.

has 5G support

✔Apple A17 Pro

The fifth-generation wireless technology delivers higher speeds and lower latency than the previous, fourth-generation tech.

GPU turbo

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.

OpenGL ES version

OpenGL ES is used for games on mobile devices such as smartphones. Newer versions support better graphics.

OpenCL version

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU) for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.

Performance

CPU speed

2 x 3.78GHz & 4 x 2.02GHz

The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.

CPU threads

More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.

Uses big.LITTLE technology

✔Apple A17 Pro

Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.

Uses HMP

✔Apple A17 Pro

Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.

turbo clock speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

When the CPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.

L2 cache

24MB

A larger L2 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.

L1 cache

256KB

A larger L1 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.

clock multiplier

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The clock multiplier controls the speed of the CPU.

L3 cache

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

A larger L3 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.

Memory

RAM speed

6400MHz

It can support faster memory, which will give quicker system performance.

DDR memory version

DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is the most common type of RAM. Newer versions of DDR memory support higher maximum speeds and are more energy-efficient.

maximum memory amount

10GB

The maximum amount of memory (RAM) supported.

maximum memory bandwidth

51.2GB/s

This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.

memory channels

More memory channels increases the speed of data transfer between the memory and the CPU.

eMMC version

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

A higher version of eMMC allows faster memory interfaces, having a positive effect on the performance of a device. For example, when transferring files from your computer to the internal storage over USB.

Supports ECC memory

✖Apple A17 Pro

Error-correcting code memory can detect and correct data corruption. It is used when is it essential to avoid corruption, such as scientific computing or when running a server.

Features

Has integrated LTE

✔Apple A17 Pro

The system on a chip (SoC) has an integrated LTE cellular chip. LTE is capable of downloading at faster speeds than older, 3G technology.

download speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The download speed is a measurement of the internet connection bandwidth, representing the maximum data transfer rate at which a device can access online content.

upload speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The upload speed is a measurement of the internet connection bandwidth, representing the maximum data transfer rate at which a device can send information to a server or another device.

Has TrustZone

✔Apple A17 Pro

A technology integrated into the processor to secure the device for use with features such as mobile payments and streaming video using digital rights management (DRM).

uses multithreading

✖Apple A17 Pro

Multithreading technology (such as Intel's Hyperthreading or AMD's Simultaneous Multithreading) provides increased performance by splitting each of the processor's physical cores into virtual cores, also known as threads. This way, each core can run two instruction streams at once.

Has NX bit

✔Apple A17 Pro

NX bit helps protect the computer from malicious attacks.

bits executed at a time

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

NEON provides acceleration for media processing, such as listening to MP3s.
