Apple's A12 Bionic is the first 7-nanometer smartphone chip

Apple's new iPhones come with a brand new chip called the A12 Bionic. The company says it's the first 7-nanometer chip and contains a whopping 6.9 billion transistors. If you break it apart and take a peek with a magnifying glass, you'll find a 6-core CPU and a 4-core GPU that Apple claims is 50 percent faster than the A11. The new chip powering the iPhone XS and XS Max also contains an eight-core Neural Engine that's capable of handling trillion operations per second. In everyday English, that means some serious horsepower for gaming and productivity on the go.
