iPhone 18 Pro offers three times the cooling performance

Apple announced that the iPhone 18 Pro offers three times the cooling performance of last year’s model. A new chip design puts the CPU closer to the vapor chamber, for greatly improved cooling to support sustained high-performance use … more…. IPhone 18 Pro offers three times the cooling performance.

Apple Event News Hub: iPhone 18 Pro is here, more Chance Miller Sep 9 2026.

Apple today revealed the A20 Pro chip in the iPhone 18 Pro and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, built on a brand new architecture using 2nm process technology. Apple described the A20 Pro as "an exceptional chip that sets a new bar for mobile computing." The chip has a 6-core CPU design with two new super cores that Apple says are up to 20% faster, calling them "desktop class" and "the fastest in any smartphone," alongside four new efficiency cores.

Here’s all the new info Apple dropped today from its keynote. Everything Apple announced at the foldable iPhone launch.

IPhone 18 Pro is now official. Apple just kicked off its big event today, and the first new products include the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.

Samsung officially welcomes Apple to the foldable segment while showing off ‘the world’s lightest fold.’. Samsung takes another shot at Apple hours before iPhone Ultra/Duo launch.

The GPU has also been redesigned with a 7-core layout that Apple says delivers up to 40% faster graphics performance and increased memory bandwidth. New neural accelerators built into the GPU offer twice the FP8 performance of the previous generation, which helps the chip run large language models locally on the device.

Big Tech Apple Everything Apple announced at the foldable iPhone launch New CEO John Ternus positioned the iPhone as "an intelligent personal hub." By Kris Holt Sept. All eyes were on Apple Park in Cupertino, California, on Wednesday to check out the latest iPhones and Apple Watches.

IPhone 18 Pro officially announced: Here’s what’s new.

The A20 Pro features an additional Neural Engine, bringing the total core count to 32. The company says the redesigned Neural Engine delivers 2x the compute of its predecessor, is more efficient, and now supports 8-bit floating point math.

We generally have a decent idea of what to expect as we head into these events, given myriad reports and rumors about what Apple is up to. It was long expected that the company would reveal its first foldable iPhone — dubbed the iPhone Ultra or iPhone Duo — the iPhone 18 Pro models and the latest Apple Watches.

Apple called the A20 Pro "the ultimate chip for running advanced on-device models," adding that it ships with "the widest memory interface we’ve ever shipped in an iPhone." The company said effective thermal management in the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ is critical to unlocking the chip’s maximum performance, since efficient heat dissipation determines how much of that performance can be sustained. To support this, Apple redesigned the chip’s silicon packaging, describing it as "custom packaging inspired by our M-series chips" that connects the silicon and memory directly to the vapor chamber for improved thermal performance.

Heading into the event, we knew that these iPhones and Apple Watches would debut alongside Siri AI, the revamped, Gemini-powered voice assistant that’s at the heart of iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27 and so on. Some earlier iPhones and Apple Watches — i.e.

Apple compared sustained performance directly against previous generations, citing 40% more sustained performance in ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌’s A20 Pro compared with the A19 Pro in the iPhone 17 Pro, and twice the sustained performance compared with the A18 Pro in the iPhone 16 Pro.
