The Apple A10 Fusion is a 64-bit ARM-based system on a chip (SoC) designed by Apple Inc., part of the Apple silicon series, and manufactured by TSMC. It first appeared in the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus which were introduced on September 7, 2016, and is also used in the seventh generation iPod Touch and the sixth and seventh generation iPad. The A10 is the first Apple-designed quad-core SoC, with two high-performance cores and two energy-efficient cores. Apple states that it has 40% greater CPU performance and 50% greater graphics performance compared to its predecessor, the Apple A9. The Apple T2 chip is based on the A10. On May 10, 2022, the 7th generation iPod Touch was discontinued, ending production of A10 Fusion chips.
The last software update compatible with the A10 chip was iPadOS 18.7.4 on the iPad (7th generation). The last update for the iPad (6th generation) is iPadOS 17.7.10, and the last update for the iPhone 7 & 7 Plus, as well as the iPod touch (7th generation) is iOS 15.8.6.
