A12 Bionic features a six-core fusion architecture with two performance cores that are up to 15 percent faster, four efficiency cores that are up to 50 percent more efficient, a four-core GPU that is up to 50 percent faster, powerful Apple-designed Image Signal Processor (ISP), video encoder and more. A fast storage controller can deliver iPhone storage up to 512GB. All of this unlocks new experiences for games, photography, video editing and graphics-intensive apps. Even with all this power, iPhone\u00a0XS\u00a0offers 30 minutes longer than iPhone X, and iPhone\u00a0XS\u00a0Max offers an hour and a half longer than iPhone X, between charges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: SFHello-Regular;\">The next-generation Neural Engine is built for advanced machine learning in everything from photography to augmented reality. A new eight-core design allows it to complete up to 5 trillion operations per second compared to 600 billion in A11 Bionic. This enables new capabilities like faster plane detection for ARKit and new features that use real-time machine learning. For the first time the Neural Engine is open to Core ML, empowering developers to build apps that utilise this highly efficient machine learning engine. Core ML running on the A12 Bionic Neural Engine is up to nine times faster than on A11 Bionic, with as little as one-tenth the energy usage.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><b><span style=\"font-family: SFHello-Regular;\">Breakthrough 12MP Dual Camera System<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: SFHello-Regular;\">iPhone\u00a0XS\u00a0continues to bring innovations to photography, things not possible before iPhone.

A new eight-core design allows it to complete up to 5 trillion operations per second compared to 600 billion in A11 Bionic. This enables new capabilities like faster plane detection for ARKit and new features that use real-time machine learning. For the first time the Neural Engine is open to Core ML, empowering developers to build apps that utilise this highly efficient machine learning engine. Core ML\u00ae running on the A12 Bionic Neural Engine is up to nine times faster than on A11 Bionic, with as little as one-tenth the energy usage.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: SFHello-Regular;\"><b>Face ID, The Most Secure Facial Authentication System Ever in a Smartphone<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: SFHello-Regular;\">Face ID is faster on iPhone\u00a0XR, enabled by software optimisations and a faster secure enclave.
