Like when apple releases a new iPhone and there’s a new A17 bionic chip, or whatever they’re on now, how is it 40% faster than the last one? What did they discover in 1 year to make it faster? Why didn’t they make these changes in the last one??

>What did they discover in 1 year to make it faster?
Just for clarification: the stuff that goes into next year’s iphone doesn’t get discovered this year. The stuff that they are doing research on today won’t get used until about 5 years down the line. That’s why those phones are so expensive. Not because of the build cost, but because it takes a long time and a lot of money to develop new microchips.
