In addition to evaluating the maintainability of iFixit publication inside the new iPhone 6s looked experts Chipworks, studied the SOC Apple A9. It turned out that the new single-chip platforms Apple released two different manufacturers Samsung and TSMC, and the first 14-nanometer technology FinFET, and the second 16-nanometer. Due to the use of various manufacturing processes the sizes of chips are different.

Chinese resource MyDrivers ran a comparison of the iPhone 6s, based on platforms from different manufacturers. The result was quite unexpected. In the test AnTuTu, which measures the performance of gadgets, were always ahead of the version of the flagship processor production TSMC, although the difference in results is not so significant. The smartphone platforms this manufacturer was heated slightly less than the device SoC Samsung. When using the same task, the South Korean chip production warmed up above 40 degrees, whereas the temperature of the SoC from TSMC hardly exceeded 37 degrees.
