This is the reason why the A18 iPhone 16e chip is far behind the iPhone 16 chip in terms
of performance.
Apple has just launched the iPhone 16e, the
"affordable" version of the iPhone 16 series. However, one piece of information has left many users "confused": the A18
chip on the iPhone 16e has lower graphics performance than the iPhone 16.
Specifically, the A18 chip on the iPhone 16e only has 4 GPU cores, while the iP
hone 16 has 5 GPU cores. This raises concerns about whether the iPhone 16e has eno
ugh power to meet user needs, especially in tasks that require high graphics such as gaming or video editing.
The A18 chip on the iPhone 16e is much weaker than the iPhone 16 model.

According to the explanation, the A18 chip on the iPhone 16e is a
"binned" version, meaning that some faulty cores have been disabled by Apple.

However, the chip still works normally and delivers good performance and high efficiency.
So, does the lack of a GPU core significantly impact the user experience?
Theoretically, fewer GPU cores mean lower graphics performance, but with Apple's optimizations, the average user pro
bably won't notice a big difference in day-to-day use. However, if you're a mobile g
amer or frequently edit videos on your iPhone, you may notice some performance drops.
Still, the iPhone 16e is a worthy upgrade over the iPhone SE 3, with a new design, larger 6.1-inch OLED display, improved cam
eras, and Face ID.
