New iPhone 6 to use dual-core processor and bring massive performance hike

Apple's iPhone 6 could use a dual-core processor, rather than the quad-core units users are familiar with seeing in Android phones.

Likely called the 'A8', Chinese tech news site cnbeta.com is reporting that the A8 will be dual-core likely clocked at around 2GHz in speed.

Apple introduced 64-bit processors with its iPhone 5S, which brought with it massive potential performance gains.

Users can expect the extra clock speed in the iPhone 6 to do just the same.

One of the reasons Apple may be avoiding adding more cores to its processors is the extra drain it would put on battery life.

Efficiency and battery life appear to be one of the core focuses of the new iPhone.
