The iPhone 6s two-hour battery life lottery – it could be you!
The iPhone 6s two-hour battery life lottery it could be you!
The iPhone 6s is one of the best smartphones we've seen, but it hides a dark secret. A dark, annoying, aggravating, hair-tearing, unfair secret.
iphone 6s可能是我们见过最好的手机，但是藏着一个暗黑的秘密，一个黑暗，令人生气，愤怒，拔头发的不公平的秘密。
Apple has used two versions of the A9 chip – one manufactured by Samsung, and the other by TSMC – but reports are now suggesting they behave very differently. They may have near-identical power and performance, but, in certain tests, the TSMC A9 offers around two hours more battery life than the Samsung chip.
apple有两种A9芯片， 三星的和TSMC的，现在据报道表现完全不同。他们的性能可能差不多但是有些测试显示，两种芯片续航差了2小时。
This certainly isn't the first time Apple has sourced components from two different manufacturers, but it's the first time there's been such a noticeable difference in battery performance.
这不是第一次apple从不同的厂商采购部件，但是是第一次表现如此差异巨大。
The differences between the chips
While it's important to remember there are variables at work, testing by Engadget and users on Reddit and other forums indicates a big difference between the chips. In Geekbench 3 tests, the TSMC A9 produced a runtime of 7hrs 50mins and a score of 4,703, while the Samsung-chipped version lasted for a lowly 6hrs 5mins of running, and only scored 3,653. Whichever way you look at it, that's a big difference, and one that could change your purchasing decision.
根据各大论坛的测试，再Geekbench3的测试中， TSMC A9续航 7小时50分钟，得分4703. 三星续航6小时5分钟，得分3653.无论怎么看都是巨大的差异，可能改变你的购买决定。
How do you find out which A9 chip you have?
If you'd like the play the A9 chip lottery and work out which chip your phone uses, you'll need to download an app like Lirum Device Info Lite. As well as displaying all the usual model information, it'll also indicate if you have a Samsung or TSMC A9 chip.
如何找出你是什么芯片的A9？
要是你想试试自己的运气，可以下载Lirum Device INFO Lite软件。除了基本的部件信息也告诉你是三星还是TSMC的A9芯片
The code names for each are as follows.
芯片如下：
iPhone 6s Plus with Samsung chip – N66AP
6S加三星 N66AP
IPhone 6s with Samsung chip – N71AP
6S加三星 N71AP
iPhone 6s Plus with TSMC chip – N66mAP
6s plus加TSMC N66mAP
iPhone 6s with TSMC chip – N71mAP
6s加TSMC N71mAP
So why is this happening?
这是为什么发生的？
Some benchmarks have shown the Samsung A9 has another disadvantage: it runs a few degrees hotter. While this isn't good for your hand, it also suggests the Samsung A9 could be less efficient. Furthermore, John Poole of Primate Labs, the makers of Geekbench, told Macrumours that, while TSMC's 16-nanometer process could sip slightly more gently at the battery than Samsung's 14-nanometer process, it did not account for the big difference in battery life.
有些测试表明三星的A9芯片有另一个劣势，它温度高了几度。除了手感不好，可能显示三星A9不够有效率。 更多的是，Geekbench的发行方实验室说， TSMC的16纳米芯片比三星的14纳米可能对电池使用更温和，并不足以解释为何差异这么大。
Real-world uses and legal issues
实际使用和法律问题。
However, there is one important thing to remember. While benchmarks often try to emulate real-world usage, they may not account for features that help extract the longest battery life possible. Apple designs both its software and hardware, and it's possible that, in real-world usage, this software could nullify most of the difference.
但是实际生活中由于软件的作用，可能电池寿命差异没那么明显。
With such a discrepancy, Apple may have just entered a grey area in retail law. What would stop customers trading in their Samsung-equipped iPhone 6s for a TSMC one, just because of the benchmark figures? Worse still, what's to stop prospective iPhone 6s buyers checking the chip of their phones before purchasing?
这么明显的差异，苹果可能掉进一个消费者法的灰色地带。 如何组织消费者tradein 三星的A9换TSMC的A9？更糟糕的是，如何组织买家购买之前检查手机芯片？
