Figures

Apple iPhone system-on-chip memory: recorded figures

provisional A figure marked provisional is recorded but not accepted: its evidence is unsettled. It may rely on one source, an unconfirmed announcement, or a digit read from a damaged scan. The reason appears under the figure. The catalog shows the figure but never uses it in a multiplier. How records are judged.

Metric Value Evidence Basis Method Source
Memory capacity whole-system provisional 128 MiB Reported Vendor-rated Design capacity Published independently One pool of DDR memory on the same package as the processor and the graphics core. The memory the machine runs in, and not the number it was sold by: the 4 GB and 8 GB on the box are flash storage, recorded separately and thirty-two to sixty-four times larger. Written "128MB" by the source and read as 128 MiB, the binary convention this catalog applies to every memory capacity. Recorded at whole-system scope because one pool on the package serves the processor and the graphics core alike, so there is no second figure this excludes. Provisional because one independent analysis supports it and no vendor document mentions memory at all.

Editorial notes

This is the memory the machine runs in, and it is not the number on the box: the phone was sold as a 4 GB and an 8 GB model, and both of those are flash storage. Keeping them apart is why the catalog has a storage metric at all.
