Those planning on purchasing one of the upcoming iPhone 16 models apparently won’t have to base their decision on performance.
The last two years saw Apple equip the standard and Pro iPhone models with different chips. The company did the same only once before, in 2013. The Cupertino giant will go back to its standard practice of equipping all its new phones with the same chip, per a new report.
According to code analyzed by developer Nicolás Alvarez, all four iPhone 16 models will be powered by the same A-series chip. They discovered five new iPhones that all start with the same identifiers, which are as follows:
The iPhone 16 family will reportedly consist of four models, so the fifth identifier here might be for a future iPhone variant.
The same starting digits are indicative of the fact that all upcoming iPhone 16 models will feature the same chip, otherwise, the identifiers would have been different for the Pro and non-Pro models.
