Apple A14 Bionic GPU

The Apple A14 Bionic graphics card is an integrated GPU in the A14 Bionic chip found in the iPhone 12 and iPad Air 2020 models. It includes 4 cores and offers a 30% better performance compared to the old A12 Bionic in the iPad Air 2019. This should translate to around 10% compared to the Apple A13 Bionic of last year.

It is manufactured in the new 5nm process and therefore should be very energy efficient.
