A Geekbench 6 leak, which has now been concluded to be a fake shows Apple’s A19 Pro to be equipped with an 8-core CPU and delivers impressive scores
A little over a month remains before Apple announces four new iPhone 17 models, with its A19 Pro reserved for the very best offerings the company has to showcase later this year. The chipset is expected to be fabricated on TSMC’s third-generation 3nm process, bringing slight improvements over its immediate predecessor, the A18 Pro, which is absolutely no slouch in the performance and efficiency department. While we gear up for the launch, we are still disappointed that we have not stumbled across any benchmark leaks for the upcoming A19 and A19 Pro, though this fake result did show some promise, highlighting an 8-core CPU instead of the traditional 6-core specification.Similar results of the A19 Pro could not be located on Geekbench 6’s database, indicating a forged benchmark
While the results shared by Dame Tech on X would have been downright impressive if the Geekbench 6 leak was legit, we obviously do not want to lead readers down that false road, but it does make for an interesting conversation.
