The A17 Pro is a pro in name but apparently only a derivative in reality.
After months of leaks, the iPhone 15 Pro and its new A17 Pro chip are finally official. The chip is based on the 3nm manufacturing process, which makes it the most exciting iPhone chip in recent memory. 3nm is the biggest manufacturing technique jump since 2020’s 5nm process which was used for the A14 Bionic. But, performance-wise, the A17 Pro doesn’t appear to be that big of an improvement over the iPhone 14 Pro’s A16 Bionic, and now we presumably know why.According to information relayed by leaker Revegnus, the A17 Pro’s codename suggests that it is basically an improved version of the A16 bionic. The A15 Bionic had the codename H14 and the A16 Bionic was known by the H15 moniker. By that convention, the A17 Pro should be called H16, but it appears to have the codename H15 Coll.
