Reports indicate that Apple's A20 Pro chip, slated for the iPhone 18 Pro lineup, will depart from a 13-year design standard by transitioning to a 96-bit LPDDR6 memory architecture. This shift from the long-standing 64-bit bandwidth is expected to significantly boost the performance of on-device AI features. To manage the high costs associated with this advanced memory, Apple may offset expenses by employing more affordable NAND storage solutions, potentially sacrificing some storage throughput for superior processing capabilities.
