Geekbench now identifies TSMC or Samsung

[Apples n' Stone]

just in case anyone didn't want to install any of the options or just want to do something easier, the latest update to Geekbench now can identify your chip.

"Motherboard: N66MAP" on mine translates as iPhone 6S Plus TSMC.

mAP = TSMC
AP= Samsung

Additonally, 66 or 71 refers to the model. (6S or 6S Plus)

Edit: Been told this is old news but there we are anyway!

The score may be lower than normal as I have a lot of apps open, bluetooth headphones in too.

OK. From next generation iOS 10 will lock developers from gathering motherboard version number, just like iOS 9 disallow developers gathering process info.

Have a TSMC version

This is the second 6S Plus I have had, exchanged first one due to dead pixels. I now wonder what the first one device I got had under the hood

I await when someone tries to pry open the SoC to check xD

Someone I know has a 6S and they just have AP at the end, not MAP or MP like you said. What does that translate to?

Do they not have a lower case "m" before the AP? As that's how it will be displayed

AP - Samsung

mAP - TSMC

No, just AP at the end.

Okay, original post needs fixing, then. It says mAP=TSMC and MP=Samsung.

hey what chip do i have my motherboard says N71mAP with a multi-core socre of 4418 and single core of 2536

TSMC so apparently runs cooler and uses slightly less battery!

I havent noticed overheat issues with what i have "samsung"...batt seems so so! 6-7 hrs over my 6 plus i got 12hrs

That is correct, it needs fixing.

I've got a Samsung chip in my 6+ apparently. N56AP

Misinformation.

Misinformation.

That's great so explain why!

Solved.

Again; solved, I totally was not typing that just before bed xD My bad.

The difference is minimal and you have to be fairly consistent in order to notice anything, it is about 3% difference if I remember rightly with regards to the battery. Either way you need to be direly naive to send it back over the Samsung chip xD
