According to the website FlatpanelsHD, which cites information from the TV Info app for tvOS, the third-generation Apple TV 4K that was released earlier this month is outfitted with a binned version of the A15 Bionic chip that has one CPU core disabled.
According to the review, the A15 Bionic CPU in the new Apple TV has five cores, whereas the chip in the iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 models has six cores.
The website found that the new Apple TV was roughly 40% faster and throttled less than the previous Apple TV 4K with the A12 Bionic chip, despite having a binned CPU and a fanless design.The review said that the new Apple TV is much faster than consoles from previous generations like the Xbox One, but multi-core benchmark testing still shows that the PS5 is faster.
The report also suggests, though it hasn’t been proven, that the Apple TV uses a version of the A15 Bionic with a GPU with four cores, as opposed to the five-core GPU found in iPhone 13 Pro models.Although the review noted that Apple’s streaming box is “starting to get to a point where Xbox One and PS4 games should, in theory, be playable on Apple TV without too many compromises,” it still lags behind popular consoles in terms of graphics performance.
Although Apple claims that the new Apple TV’s GPU performance is up to 30% faster than that of the previous generation, there are no GPU benchmark apps available for tvOS.
The Apple TV is far from a “console killer” because it only offers a limited number of games that take full advantage of the A15 Bionic’s capabilities, according to the review. However, the performance improvements may set the stage for a larger gaming push.
