The first performance results the new Pro A19 begin to appear in databases such as Geekbench, and point to a notable advance in the iPhone 17 ProAlthough these are early appearances, the figures draw a trend that invites comparison with previous generations.
It is best to take it easy: they are preliminary data and scores may vary depending on the unit and software, but serve as an initial reference. These measurements give a CPU improvement and, above all, a major leap in GPU.
First clues on Geekbench: what improvement and how much
En Multicore cpu, records place the A19 Pro among a 13% and 15% above the Pro A18 present in the previous generation. This is a moderate but consistent growth that should be noticeable in productivity tasks.
Where it shines the most is in graphics: in the iPhone 17 Pro, GPU would yield around up to 40% more than its predecessor in synthetic tests, which would have a direct impact on gaming and video editing.
Cooling also comes into play: the new steam chamber of the Pro models favors a sustained performance under high load, which is key for extended gaming, editing, and running AI models.
What the official specifications and figures say
According to Apple's product pages, the A19 Pro boasts the Faster CPU on a mobile and from a Most advanced GPU, manufactured with the process of 3 nm from TSMC, which improves efficiency and density.
The company talks about up to 20% more CPU performance vs. Pro A17, in addition to an increase in 50% in cache top-level to better feed the cores.
An improvement in GPU math speed is also mentioned, a unified image compression and a second-generation dynamic cache to optimize graphics loads and reduce bottlenecks.
In configurations, the A19 team 6 CPU cores y 5 GPU, while the A19 Pro maintains the 6 CPU cores and adds 6 GPU; in addition, the iPhone 17 Pro and Air they rely on 12 GB of RAM.
El Neural Engine also raises the bar: accelerators reach up to four times what was seen in the Pro A18, which should be noted in AI, computational photography, and local transcriptions.
Graphic performance: a figure that comes close to the M2
A shared capture on X suggests a score of 45.657 points for the A19 Pro GPU, practically identical to the 45.862 who got the chip M2 at the time, always within synthetic tests.
For reference, the Pro A18 would be around 32.673 points, which draws a considerable leap generation after generation in the graphic section.
These equivalences are indicative: do not imply total equivalence, since architecture, frequencies and best before date They differ between mobile and desktop platforms, and the actual usage context may change the picture.
What to expect in real-life use and next steps
Beyond the specific figure, the frequency stability and thermal management; The steam chamber of the Pro should help sustain performance during long sessions without throttling.
We will have to see how the results evolve with future versions of iOS, optimized apps and the practical difference between the A19 Pro and the Pro variant of the Air under prolonged loads.
When they arrive independent tests and direct comparisons, the measurement will be more accurate. real impact in demanding games, video editing, and AI-intensive tasks.
Today, the Geekbench leaks They draw an A19 Pro with solid progress in CPU y notable push in GPU, with figures that are approaching the M2; if confirmed, and with the help of new cooling and architectural improvements, the iPhone 17 Pro would have an advantage for heavy loads and professional scenarios.
