Revealing the 'regressive' performance scores of iPhone 16e

According to WCCF Tech , the newly launched iPhone 16e version is attracting the attention of users, but the initial benchmark test results have made many people question the actual performance of the device.

iPhone 16e's performance is 'cut' to sell at a 'soft' price

Specifically, the A18 chip on the iPhone 16e, which is advertised as the 'heart' of the device, showed significantly lower GPU performance than the A18 chip on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus. The reason is that Apple applied the 'chip-binning' technique, disabling a GPU core on the A18 chip of the iPhone 16e, leaving it with only 4 cores instead of 5.

The Geekbench 6 Metal benchmark results show that the iPhone 16e scored 24,188, about 15% lower than the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus versions. This means that the graphics performance of the iPhone 16e will be affected, especially in tasks that require high graphics processing capabilities such as gaming or video editing.

However, Apple still equips the iPhone 16e with 8 GB of RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and supporting artificial intelligence (AI) features created on the device.

Will this performance 'cutback' significantly affect the iPhone 16e user experience? The answer will come in the future when the device goes through some real-world use.
