    Pro Performance
    The Pro iPhones are powered by an A13
    Bionic chip. A great deal of effort has been
    put into making this CPU the best yet, with
    special attention paid to Machine Learning
    and power efficiency. This chip is fast. Its
    8.5 billion transistors are capable of over
    one trillion operations per second, and
    they’re tailored for low power. In fact, the
    iPhone 11 Pro’s battery lasts around four
    hours longer than the XS, with the Max
    version giving up to five hours more than
    the XS Max.
    Fit to Drop
    Like all iPhones, the 11 series underwent rigorous
    testing before it was deemed ready for release.
    Apple dropped it so you don’t have to, but if you’re
    anything like us, you probably will.
    Game On!
    As is usual for an Apple keynote, we got
    to see a game running on the iPhone 11
    Pro. It was called Pascal's Wager, and was
    a Dark Souls-inspired action RPG. It ran
    smoothly and looked agreeably console-
    like, but its technical prowess didn’t seem
    especially next-gen. Maybe we’ll change
    our minds when it’s released later this
    autumn; preorders open in October.
    The A13 Bionic chip has 8.5 billion transistors.
    Count ‘em!
    Pascal’s Wager
    looked good, but it
    didn’t out-impress
    last year’s stunning
    games.
