So what about the A18 chip inside the iPhone 16e? According to Apple, it has a 4-core GPU – two less than the A18 Pro and one less than the A18 in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus. Potentially, the A18 chip in the iPhone 16e is a binned chip (just as the A18 chip in the iPhone 16 is probably a binned version of the A18 Pro).
Does this mean that the iPhone 16e is slower or will perform worse? Not for most users. The CPU is still the same as the one in the base iPhone 16 model, which is powerful enough to handle intensive tasks. The main difference here is in graphics processing. For comparison, the iPhone 16 Pro’s GPU is around 15% faster than the base A18 GPU due to its extra core.
The only users who might notice a difference are those who constantly play 3D games or edit videos on their iPhone. However, for someone coming from an older iPhone, even the binned version of the A18 chip will be faster.
