Cei 3 GB RAM of the iPhone 7 Plus were confirmed by a benchmark that appeared during this evening in Gekbench, and if you still had doubts, they should now be dispelled. The new A10 Fusion chip in the iPhone 7 Plus hides a quad-core processor which is supported by 3 GB of RAM to record excellent pictures and videos with the new camera.
You can see in the image below that iPhone9,4, i.e. iPhone 7 Plus, has 3 GB of RAM and a processor that is recognized incorrectly, only 2 cores at 2.23 GHz being recognized. I told you today that in reality the quad-core processor of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus has 4 cores, 2 clocked at frequencies up to 2.8 GHz and 2 at much lower frequencies for reduced consumption.
All this hardware also has performance to measure, more precisely in the single-core test iPhone 7 Plus gets 3233 points, and in the multi-core test it gets 5363 points, being a real beast. iPhone 6S Plus scores 2400 points in the single-core test and just over 4000 points in the new version of Geekbench, so the difference is very big.
iPhone 7 Plus – 3 GB RAM and better performance than iPad Pro
However, it is not the iPhone 6S Plus that is the benchmark in Apple's range of products, but the 12.9-inch iPad Pro with its triple-core processor and 4 GB RAM, the tablet having extremely good performance. More precisely, we are talking about a single-core score of 3000 points for the iPad Pro 12.9 inch and a score of 4881 points for the multi-core test, both lower than the iPhone 7 Plus.
Apple said last night that the new A10 Fusion chip of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus is extremely powerful, and now we see that Apple did not lie, it being more powerful than the A9X. The difference even compared to this one is quite big, about 10%, and this is ultimately a performance boost that users will feel in certain tasks.
Having said that, what do you think about the performance of the iPhone 7 Plus with its A10 Fusion chip?
