According social media, Apple is in the middle of a rough ride , which has already been saddled with a nickname: chipgate . Several users have found that the A9 processors of their iPhone 6s and 6s Plus does not work well as those of other terminals of the same type. It’s all about batteries from different performances.
A video has turned up the fuss over all:
It circulates suspect then that not all new iPhone are the same . And among some users winds the hypothesis of return defective products, while others are resolved if the to the sound of laughter . Being a controversy so far not supported by concrete evidence, it could really be a hoax.
Taking it seriously, the problem may arise from the fact that Apple has relied on two different suppliers for the production of chips: the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and Samsung. Specifically, it appears that the terminals with Samsung chips from those worst performance (wanting to trigger an uproar, you could not do anything else, right?).
So you are developing a controversy at the limit between the serious and facetious. Some people a liar to others, some calls to burn the new iPhone, some liquid around with a joke. It is the new traditional Apple-gate, after Antennagate (that actually made sense) and the Bendgate (9 cases all over the world). The output of each new iPhone seems to have connected the birth of a controversy going on the network.
Before understanding the true nature of this scandaletto it will take time and checks. Meanwhile, a test of GeekBench shows conflicting results between two iPhone identical, with the chip from TSMC longer lasting battery as much as 20%. Apple has dismissed as “fake evidence”, specifying that the test of Cupertino show a difference of 2-3% between the two chip in battery life, which is considered normal.
If you already have a 6s iPhone and want to find out what the chip installed in your new smartphone you just download Lirum Device Info Lite, an app can show the processor model: if you eventually find N66AP N71AP or, sorry, you caught a chip Samsung, the one that consumes the most. If out N66mAP or N71mAP you win a possible 20% bonus of extra battery. To me it went well:
We’ll see. And we’ll see if it will open a gate on the correct testing of third party organizations. But that’s another story.
