The Apple A17 Pro chip in the new iPad mini 7 turned out to be a stripped-down version of itself.🤯 

As it turns out, Apple used the A17 Pro chip from last year's iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, but with one important change - a cut-down GPU.
In the new version of the A17 Pro tablet, it received 5 GPU cores instead of 6, which clearly indicates the use of a “binning” strategy, when Apple uses chips with some restrictions to reduce costs.

Interesting move by Apple to use a stripped-down version of the A17 Pro chip in the new iPad mini 7. The reduction in GPU cores hints at a cost-saving strategy through chip binning. Will this impact performance noticeably? 🤔
