One of the devices presented was the iPhone SE that integrated the chip A15 Bionic and boost connectivity 5G on a device slightly above 500 euros. The first units submitted for reviews have begun to reach a select group of journalists and have begun to appear the first performance tests. The results have shown some scores very similar compared to the iPhone 13, Apple's flagship. After the jump we analyze the data.
The performance of the iPhone SE on the rise thanks to the A15 Bionic chip
The performance test They allow to evaluate and score different technical aspects of the hardware of a device in a simple way. One of these tests is the well-known Geekbench, one of the most reliable tools. Geekbench analyzes the CPU performance and computing speed tackle very basic tasks. This set of tests, complex and banal, allows to obtain a score that is close to the reality of the performance of the device. These scores vary depending on whether the device has been running on a single core or multiple cores.
The iPhone SE (2022) presented on March 8 included the chip A15 Bionic which also carries the iPhone 13 inside. It is a 64-bit processor with 6-core CPU, 4-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine. The Geekbench performed shed quite equal results between iPhone SE and iPhone 13:
- single core:
- iPhone SE: 1695
- iPhone 13: 1672
- Multi core:
- iPhone SE: 4021
- iPhone 13: 4481
4 GB of RAM finally for the iPhone SE
All the differences between points are really negligible highlighting the equality of performance between both devices. This indicates that the A15 Bionic chip gives the iPhone SE good performance and a long life in terms of updates and features being a 4,7-inch device.
The new iOS 15.4 betas published yesterday also provide us with additional extra information that was echoed MacRumours: the iPhone SE integrates 4 GB of RAM. This is new since in the previous generation the iPhone SE had 3 GB of RAM. This allows performance to be increased in line with the integration of the A15 Bionic chip.
