[7] On May 10, 2022, the iPod Touch 7th generation was discontinued, ending production of A10 Fusion chips.

[8] The latest software updates for the iPhone 7 & 7 Plus including the iPod Touch 7th generation variants systems using this chip are iOS 15.8.3, released on July 29, 2024, as they were discontinued with the release of iOS 16 in 2022, while updates for the iPad 7th generation variant systems using this chip are still supported.

The A10 (internally, T8010) is built on TSMC's 16 nm FinFET process[1][9] and contains 3.28 billion transistors (including the GPU and caches) on a die size of 125 mm2.

As the first Apple-produced quad-core SoC, it has two high-performance cores designed for demanding tasks like gaming, while also featuring two energy-efficient Apple-designed 64-bit 1.05 GHz cores codenamed Zephyr at 0.78 mm2[10][11] for normal tasks in a configuration similar to the ARM big.LITTLE technology.

The new 6-core @ 900 MHz GPU built into the A10 chip is 50% faster while consuming 66% of the power of its A9 predecessor.
