Latest iPhone 12 leak reveals the Apple A14 Bionic chip

In a report on Tom’s Guide, TSMC states that the 5-nanometer chip is “about 15% faster but uses a full 30% lower power than the current 7nm node that is in the Snapdragon 865 Plus or Apple A13”. What this means is that the Apple iPhone 12 could have longer battery life while retaining that speed and smooth functioning. The chip will also be powering all the iPhone 12 models including the base iPhone 12 to the iPhone 12 Pro Max. 

In other iPhone 12 news, it is speculated that the iPhone 12 could be one of Apple's tiniest phones yet. You can read more about that story here. In fact, leaked renders of the phone also show off a 5.4 inch screen as well a notched OLED display and dual rear camera. You can check out the leaked image here.
