According to Scott Lurndal <
slp53@pacbell.net>:
The Neo has been so popular that they've run out of 5 core chips. Oops. >>They could ask TSMC to do another run of A16 but those would be way
more expensive than the rejects they've been using.
They can also use the 6-core version and fuse out one of the cores
with a small revenue hit.
They're up to the A19 now. The A16 was their 2022 chip that went
into the iPhone 14 and 15 series, which were discontinued in 2024.
I would be surprised if they had any of the 6 core chips left.
