iPhone 7 is the latest device from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) that is using an “A10 Fusion” processor. The chip has occasioned extraordinary moments within the tech industry, which triggers not only competition but also a wake-up call to the various device makers. This has been echoed by the director of Linley Group, esteemed chip industry research firm, which also bears the owner’s name, Linley Gwennap.

According to Gwennap, the two different CPUs in the A10 are big enough to incite stiff competition. While being referred to as ‘Apple’s Hurricane,’ A10 will have a combination of two high-performance strengths; hence it will give more than 40% better performance compared to the A9. Given its high-end performance, the chip may consequently become a real threat to the Intel processor.

An analysis of A10 Fusion chip Vs. The Intel

Being the substantial threat that it is, of A10 Fusion chip is excellent. Compared to the likes of Samsung Electronics’ “Exynos 8890,” and Huawei’s “Kirin 955,” of A10 Fusion chip is arguably faster especially when it is using a single-core performance. Somehow, it has caught up with Intel’s laptops CPUs. It is very comfortable on an iPhone 7, and it intends to outpace all its Android rivals. Apparently, it is also ahead of a broad catalog of comparatively new Mac computers.

On the other hand, Intel has for so many years taken center stage as the vendor of desktop and laptop processors, continuously outdoing AMD. The presence of the Wintel’s portmanteau is a clear reminder of the supremacy of Intel’s chips in the early years. However, many things have taken a different horizon putting the A10 Fusion chip on the front line.

Apart from the A10 Fusion chip and the Intel-branded modem, there is also the presence of a Qualcomm chip. An unconfirmed rumor has it that even though Apple has somewhat stuck to a dual-core policy, the iPhone is likely to take up the use of the Intel-branded instead of the Qualcomm chip.

Further claims by Apple are that the screens on the iPhone are now 25% brighter than what they used to offer. This will in return have a significant impact on the battery usage.
