Hyping the performance of the A18 Pro, Apple claims that its latest flagship iPhone SoC is twice as fast as the A17 Pro in hardware-accelerated ray tracing
The A18 Pro exclusively powers the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, with Apple making bold statements about its top-end 3nm chipset for mobile devices. One of them was hardware-accelerated ray tracing, which is a feature that was supported by last year’s A17 Pro. While we should get a decent gaming performance bump with the latest SoC compared to the previous generation, the technology giant says that that difference could be twice as much in hardware-accelerated ray tracing.With the A18 Pro, Apple says that with Game Mode enabled, users can expect better sustained framerates for prolonged gaming sessions
During the announcement, Apple revealed some performance charts, claiming that the A18 Pro GPU was up to 20 percent faster than the A17 Pro, with the CPU being 15 percent faster.
