Chip generations tend to improve with age. As designs get better and production processes squeeze more onto a smaller space, the performance of chips get better over time.
This is also true of Apple Silicon, Apple’s self-designed chips used in its Mac lineup, as well as the iPad Pro and iPad Air. The replacement of Intel’s chips has proven itself repeatedly to have been a great move for Apple, with the improvements impressing customers and resulting in more buyers.
