Apple will increase processor speed with firmware update...

Well technically it would be since clock speeds can be altered via software.

This processor is designed for low power consumption not raw performance. There is probably a little bit of head room left but I would expect not much. Apple designed this to keep power consumption to a minimum not maximize performance. There are physical limits imposed by the process technology and design techniques used.

The next core will very likely be A15 based. You will see 4 cores running at lower clock rates than Apple is using today.

Boy, you know good stuff. You must have some really good inside sources! Can't wait for the Retina screen on my iPad 2.

That'll be nifty keen. 🙄😀
