双语：你的iPhone6s 陷入"芯片门"问题
Inside the sleek body of the latest iPhone is one of two chipsmade bydifferent manufacturers.
最新款的苹果手机光滑的机身里，内置有由不同厂家生产的两种芯片之一。
After conducting tests, a number of iPhone users have claimedthe battery
life differs on the iPhone 6s depending on whichchip is inside.
经过测试，许多苹果用户称，iPhone 6s的电池寿命的长短因其内部使用的芯片而有所不同。
But Apple has said these tests are 'not representative of real-world
usage,' claiming the battery lifeof 6s handsets varies within just two and three
per cent.
但苹果公司称，这些测试并不能“代表真实环境下的使用状态”，并声称苹果iPhone 6s的电池寿命差异仅有2-3%。
Commentators have branded the issue 'chipgate'.
评论人士将这一事件称为“芯片门”。
It has long been rumoured that the A9 chips inside the popular new iPhone
6s and 6s Plushandsets are made by two manufacturers - TSMC and Samsung - and
teardowns recentlyconfirmed this.
大受欢迎的iPhone 6s和6s
Plus手机中内置的A9芯片由两家不同制造商(TSMC公司和三星公司)生产的传言由来已久，近期的拆机证实了这一传言非虚。
A number of benchmark tests claim to show a theoretical difference in
battery life depending onwhich A9 chip was tested, with one claiming a 50 minute
difference between manufacturers.
许多基准测试显示，根据测试的是哪一种A9芯片，电池寿命理论上存在差异，其中一个测试声称，两家不同制造商生产的芯片导致的电池寿命差别有50分钟。
Tests first posted on MyDrivers showed that TSMC's chip out-performed
Samsung's according toreports on BGR.com.
根据BGR网站的报道，最先发布在MyDrivers公上的测试显示，TSMC公司生产的芯片表现优于三星公司生产的芯片。
YouTubers Austin Evans and Jonathan Morrison then both claimed to show that
TSMC's chip isslightly more efficient.
YouTube用户奥斯汀•埃文斯(Austin Evans)和乔纳森•莫里森(Jonathan
Morrison)均认为TSMC公司的芯片略优。
Mr Morrison said that Samsung's processor 'runs hotter and yields less
battery life...there'sdefinitely a difference of battery life between these two
chips'.
莫里森表示，三星处理器“运行时更容易发热，电池寿命更短……这两种不同芯片的电池寿命差异相当明显”。
Apple told MailOnline that its own testing, as well as data gathered from
its customers since thehandset launched, shows the battery life of the handsets
varies between two and three per cent.
苹果公司告诉《每日邮报在线》(MailOnline)，其内部测试以及手机发布后收集自客户的数据均显示，手机电池寿命的差异仅有2-3%。
This is regardless of the chips inside them.
无论手机内置的是哪种芯片。
The information from customers is collected automatically if they opted in
when they set up theirphones.
如果顾客在设置手机时勾选允许，那么客户信息将会自动被收集。
The firm said: 'With the Apple-designed A9 chip in your iPhone 6s or iPhone
6s Plus, you aregetting the most advanced smartphone chip in the world.
苹果公司称：“iPhone 6s和iPhone 6s Plus的内置芯片均为苹果自主设计的A9芯片，这是全世界最先进的智能手机芯片。”
'Every chip we ship meets Apple's highest standards for providing
incredible performance anddeliver great battery life, regardless of iPhone 6s
capacity, color, or model.
“我们出货的每块芯片都符合苹果公司的最高标准，不论是哪种容量、颜色或款式的iPhone 6s，都能够实现卓越的性能和可观的电池寿命。”
'Certain manufactured lab tests which run the processors with a continuous
heavy workload untilthe battery depletes are not representative of real-world
usage, since they spend an unrealisticamount of time at the highest CPU
performance state.
“某些捏造的实验室测试令处理器持续高负荷地运转，直至电池耗空。由于他们令CPU在最高性能状态运行的时间是不切实际的，这些测试并不能代表芯片在真实环境下的使用状态。”
'It's a misleading way to measure real-world battery life.
“这绝非测量真实环境下电池寿命的正确方法。”
'Our testing and customer data show the actual battery life of the iPhone
6s and iPhone 6s Plus,even taking into account variable component differences,
vary within just 2-3 per cent of eachother.'
“即使把一些可变因素考虑在内，我们的测试以及用户数据显示，iPhone 6s和iPhone 6s
Plus的电池寿命的实际差异仅为2%-3%。”
Currently there is no way to tell which chip your iPhone uses.
目前还没有办法知晓你手里的iPhone使用的是哪种芯片。
TechCrunch has noted that the two to three percent difference in battery
performance is withinthe manufacturing tolerances for any device.
TechCrunch提示，对于任何设备而言，2%-3%的电池寿命差异都在加工误差的允许范围内。
