Apple recently introduced new iPad Pro models. While the camera module has been fundamentally redesigned, a new processor is said to have been added. But that is not entirely true.

In the press release, Apple highlighted the new AR camera with LiDAR scanner as well as the new A12Z Bionic chip. Compared to its predecessor - the A12X Bionic chip, this now has eight cores. But the new chip is actually supposed to be the 2018 processor. How is that possible? The Notebook Check platform claims that both processors are one and the same model. Apple has only changed the name and activated the eighth core, as this was already present in 2018 but was deactivated. This is what the report:

Essentially, this means that the A12X and A12Z are the same physical chip (pending the results of the A12Z floorplan analysis) with the same physical number of CPU and GPU cores. Anandtech believes that the A12Z could actually be a re-binned variant of the A12X.

New iPad Pro in fall 2020 increasingly realistic 

A 100% confirmation is still pending. TechInsights is to carry out a floor plan analysis to finally confirm the whole thing. In view of the first investigation and a previous benchmark test However, there is little doubt. The disappointment that the new lineup did not receive an A13 chip was already great. Even if the whole thing is scandalous, the discovery now further fuels the rumor that Apple is planning a second iPad Pro update this year. The company may never have been interested in developing a new A13 chip for the spring update. According to reports, Apple is planning an iPad Pro 12.9-inch device with mini-LED technology. As part of this, the device could even receive an A14 chip. Let's wait and see. (Image: Apple)
