Why is the new iphone chip strong every year, but it can't keep up with the updates of several generations of ios?

Although the innovation of iphone is a little weak in recent years, it has never turned over on the self-developed A-series chips, and its performance is often the strongest in the mobile phone chip camp in the same period. Now A 13 and A 12Z are Apple's most powerful mobile chips, so it is no problem to ensure the fluency of daily operation or playing various games.

However, many people know that the performance of the iphone is very strong, but they are often afraid to update the system when buying the iphone. The reason is that once the iphone updates the system, it is easy to get stuck and its fluency will decrease. At least many people around me dare not update the system all the year round, which is also caused by hearsay.

So why is the performance of iphone's A-series chip so strong that it is difficult to update the system? In fact, this is mainly because some people in previous generations of Apple's mobile phone system were suspected of slowing down the running speed of the old iphone, that is, they lacked the optimization of the old models and chips. For example, once the iphone6 is updated to ios 1 1 system, its fluency is greatly reduced and its battery life is not as good as before. This is the inadaptability of the new system to the old model. However, the increase in demand brought by new functions and new interfaces has overwhelmed the old models such as iphone6.

In fact, for Apple, it is impossible to have so much energy to take care of all models. The new system should serve new mobile phones, and more new models will be optimized. For example, although IOS 13 supports iphone6s, it is only barely supported and may be uncomfortable to use. In fact, this kind of thing does not only exist in Apple phones. The old computer running win 10 years ago was not as fast as win7, and the fluency of Android phones may not be as good as before after several generations of system updates. Therefore, it is not recommended that a mobile phone frequently update the system, and it is enough to update two large versions of the system at most.

In fact, the chip of iPhone has always been very strong, especially the single-core performance, which is unmatched by Qualcomm Snapdragon, MediaTek and Samsung processors. Apple's support for iOS system has a lot to do with the running memory of iPhone. For example, although the iPhone6s was released on 20 15 and the processor is only A9, this phone can support iOS 14, while the iPhone6 one year earlier can only be upgraded to the iOS 12 system because it only has 1G running memory.

Although the A 1 1 processor used by iPhone8 is much stronger than A9 of iPhone6s, it is foreseeable that Apple's support schedule for these two phones should be the same. IPhone7 Plus can be upgraded to a higher system because it uses 3G running memory.

I hope my answer can help you, thank you!

This is the original intention of the merchants. No matter how the hardware is upgraded, there is always software that can eat it, so users have reason to buy new models!

This is not only on mobile phones, but also on computers.

Every upgrade of the familiar Windows operating system can always eat up the hardware resources developed in recent years.

In fact, this is also more conducive to the development of the industry, otherwise everyone will play Windows98 with 128M memory, which is not good.

I played a joke at the it house a long time ago. Android system update is to extend the life of old devices. Apple's system update is to eliminate old equipment. The wp system is updated to brush the sense of existence, because even its supervisor doesn't know what has been updated.

I am a conspiracy theorist. I think there must be a little black button, which is deliberately pressed to slow down your Apple phone and then force you to change to a new iphone.

In fact, when it comes to technical things, it is certain that the new system is adapted and optimized according to the latest model of iphone. By the way, it is only compatible with old equipment. After all, even the research and development of Apple has limited energy. Compatibility means availability. It's not easy to use, so don't update the iphone unless you have to, especially don't update the big version.
