The same site claims that the phone has 4MB RAM and you can imagine that this is a huge typo on their end. Many sources disagree if this is 14nm Samsung FinFet processor or it is based on 16nm TSMC manufacturing process. Many hope that this is a Samsung process as 14nm sounds better than 16nm but in reality these processes are close in both transistor size and performance.

We will know soon enough when iFix it get its hands on first iPhone and crack it open but the new phone is still a dual core so no changes there.

The fact that M5 co-processor is not integrated on the SoC, indicates that this chip is smaller than A8. The phone that was evaluated on the 20 August 2015 comes with 128GB memory, iOS 9 and this is a A1700 variant of the iPhone for china market.

This is a GSM,CDMA,TD-SCDMA,TD-LTE,LTE FDD phone that measures 67.1×138.3×7.1(mm) and supports 900MHz, 1800MHz, 850MHz, 1900MHz, 800MHz, 1900MHz, 2GHz, Band 38, Band 39, Band 40, Band 41 and Band 3.

Apple claims that A9 has 70 percent more CPU and 90 percent more GPU performance than the A8 and this will be interesting to see in the real life.
