The iPhone 14 Pro, which was introduced in the past months and is one of the most powerful models of the iPhone to date, has recently managed to infuriate many users with the “green line” error. It was announced that this problem, which was encountered by users with iOS 16, is software and will be fixed with an update.
On the other hand, many iPhone 14 Pro users were complaining that their phones were not as powerful as they expected. Some information that has emerged today shows that the iPhone 16 will actually be almost as powerful as a computer, but this project was “trashed” at the last moment.
It was supposed to be a phone with ray tracing.
According to the information obtained by The Information, Apple engineers wanted to add dozens of different features to the device during the development of the iPhone 16. The engineers working on the phone’s graphics processing unit (video card) aimed to make the phone as powerful as a current gaming computer by adding hardware acceleration supported ray tracing and many different features to the iPhone 14 Pro.
However, towards the end of the development process, a major bug was discovered in the graphics processing units. Because of this error, the graphics processing unit of the iPhone 14 Pro was consuming too much power and was getting hot. In addition to all this, the charge of the phone, which was expected to at least take off the day, could last for a few hours at most, even with normal use. Therefore, engineers abandoned all these plans and tried to develop the iPhone 14 Pro within the safe limits offered by the hardware.
These features may be introduced in the iPhone 15 family
According to the information The Information received from unnamed Apple employees, engineers and former employees, Apple has already started developing this feature for the iPhone 15 family. It is claimed that the company will not make the same mistakes in the next phone generation and will put these features on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max (or Ultra) models.
In addition, according to other information and claims, Apple’s famous silicon chips are actually much more powerful than stated, but the Cupertino technology giant has to restrict all chips to prevent the high energy consumption of these processors.
According to the information obtained, in addition to all these problems, Apple is trying to psychologically prevent engineers from switching to different companies by making presentations to its engineers stating that chip startups are constantly failing.
