The Apple A13 Bionic is a 64-bit ARM-based system on a chip (SoC), designed by Apple Inc., part of the Apple silicon series. It appears in the iPhone 11, 11 Pro/Pro Max, the iPad (9th generation), the iPhone SE (2nd generation) and the Studio Display. Apple states that the two high performance cores are 20% faster with 30% lower power consumption than the Apple A12's, and the four high efficiency cores are 20% faster with 30% lower power consumption than the A12's.
Every mobile device that uses an A13 (iPhone 11 series and 2nd generation SE, 9th generation iPad) supports the latest software updates (iOS 26 and iPadOS 26, respectively).
