Apple tried but failed in an attempt to develop a next-generation Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for the iPhone 14 Pro series.
) claims that Apple was working on a next-generation graphics process unit for the iPhone 14 Pro series. The engineers working on the GPU bit off more than they could chew and the early prototypes required more power than expected based on software simulations run by Apple.
Two sources who had direct knowledge of what went on at Apple said that the prototype version of the chip drew too much power from the batteries found inside the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Additionally, these prototype GPUs also made the handsets run too hot.
The next-gen GPU would have included advanced capabilities such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing which helps create realistic-looking shadows by realistically portraying the way light can reflect and refract. This extra bit of realism can help take mobile games to another level.
Apple's chip designing unit hasn't faced too many bumps in the road, so when they occur it is big news. Besides not being able to develop the next-gen GPU and its own 5G modem , Apple has continued to face the exodus of several top designers and engineers. When Gerard Williams III, the company's top CPU designer at the time, took a powder in 2019 to start his own company, he was replaced at Apple by Mike Fillipo. The latter reportedly did not get along with engineers and left to join Microsoft. And while this is obviously a key position, Apple has not yet found a replacement. The unit is headed by Johny Srouji who has the title of Senior Vice President, Hardware Technology at Apple.
