- Custom Silicon (Custom ARM)IndianMascot said:Other than touch ID, anything significant about this phone?
According to Amin and other Reddit users, the powered-off tracking stems from the app's use of the iPhone 5S' M7 chip, a motion-sensor used by a range of sports-related apps, including one developed by Nike. The M7, a co-processor to the phone's main A7 chip, purely handles motion-sensor functions and requires very little power.
In this case, Amin claims it still tracked his steps even when the phone's battery was flat.
Newly discovered Cirrus chip in iPhone 5s could explain enhanced audio features.
When Apple introduced the iPhone 5, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing Phil Schiller noted a number of new methods being used for noise cancellation from solutions using the device’s third microphone to an updated “noise-cancelling earpiece” and the addition of wideband audio. The new parts by Cirrus are numbered as 338S1202 for the Class D audio amplifier and 338S1201 for the Audio Codec. Note that the audio codec is ~30% smaller than the codec inside the iPhone 5.
It is quite possible that Apple’s new, in-house noise canceling technology uses this new Apple-branded Cirrus chip.
A pair of newly released patent applications detail potential future capabilities for Apple devices, with the first detailing a system by which two devices could be paired using biometric information, like a fingerprint, while the second details a method to display camera information using electronic diffusers.
