If you knew that there was only camera, display and minor differences between the iPhone 13 series and iPhone 13 Pro series, then you are mistaken as there’s a minor performance upgrade you have missed. These “Pro” iPhones will sport a 5-Core GPU instead of 4-Core GPU configuration you see on the iPhone 13 and 13 mini.

This might have been possible by disabling one GPU core for the A15 Bionic used in both the iPhone 13, and iPhone 13 mini. Now, a latest performance leak of the new iPhone 13 Pro with 5-Core GPU goes to show the incredible jump in GPU horsepower over the last year’s iPhone 12 Pro.

The A15 Bionic on iPhone 13 Pro series comes with 5-Core GPU, gives up to 55% better performance than iPhone 12 Pro

In the latest Geekbench 5 Metal score, the new iPhone 13 Pro with seemingly more powerful A15 Bionic was benchmarked, and it got a healthy 14216 points while MacRumors reported that the iPhone 12 Pro from last year with its A14 Bionic got 9123 points in the same test.

So, we are looking at somewhere around 55% faster GPU performance thanks to the 5-core GPU for the A15 Bionic. Apple boldy claim to provide up to 50% faster graphics performance than any other smartphone chipset, and so this claim as of now stands true.

Also, the iPhone 13 Pro coming in with 6GB RAM gets confirmed from the other CPU performance leak we got earlier. Though the new A15 Bionic maybe deliver great GPU horsepower even when compared to its predecessor but it doesn’t give a notable CPU performance improvement.
