The iPhone 14 Pro and ‌iPhone 14 Pro Max have 6GB of faster RAM, which helps make the overall performance of the device faster and more efficient compared to last year’s iPhone 13 Pro. Earlier today, a teardown of the iPhone 14 Pro revealed that it features Qualcomm’s X65 5G modem, offering faster 5G speeds and lower power consumption. The same teardown also confirmed that the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max have the newer and faster type of LPDDR5 RAM compared to the LPDDR4X memory in the previous iPhone 13 Pro. Like the iPhone 13 Pro last year, the iPhone 14 Pro still features the same 6GB of RAM, but benefits from the newer type of LPDDR5 memory. The standard iPhone 14 and ‌iPhone 14‌ Plus are rumored to still feature LPDDR4X memory along with the A15 Bionic chip from last year’s flagship iPhones. According to Apple, the A16 Bionic in the iPhone 14 Pro has 50% more memory bandwidth, which is in line with the expected increase from the switch to LPDDR5 memory. The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max feature the new A16 Bionic chip that Apple says is the “fastest chip ever in a smartphone.”
