A10, 'Hurricane' cores, and iPhone 7's industry leading performanceApple's chipset team remains the iPhone's secret weapon.
I've been saying for a few years now just how impressive Johny Sjrouji's hardware technologies team at Apple is, but it's still something that gets lost in the spec comparison charts cut-and-pasted across the shallower parts of the internet. For anyone who really knows silicon, though, what Apple's doing with iPhone 7, the A10 Fusion chipset is beyond exciting. That doesn't just include the new "Hurricane" high-performance cores, but the entire package.

It's common to see people claiming that the iPhone has "less specs" than the competition, but it's simply not the case and hasn't been for a few generations now. The A10 Fusion's Hurricane CPU core is ahead of literally everything else when looking at single threaded performance, and to the extent that two of these CPU cores is enough to remain competitive in multithreaded performance ag...
