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??

Second hand anecdotal story, so I can’t verify it, but it does come from a very close friend who I don’t think would have any reason to lie to me.
He used to work for ‘one of the big’ phone companies, not Google or Apple but a big well known name. He developed a way to extend the battery life by a substantial amount. I can’t remember the exact figure, but for the purposes of the post lets say a Three Day battery.
When he took it to the superiors, they asked him to put it down to a Two Day battery, as that was already a decent improvement on what they had, and they could save the Three Day battery for next years release.
So to answer your question, I reckon phones could be a lot faster right now if companies didn’t like money so much.
