Some tests have revealed that the iPhone 4S A5 processor could be clocked at about 800MHz. In a time when we are starting to see smartphones with 1.5GHz CPUs you might be thinking Apple has made a mistake here.

The benefits of a lower clock speed means that the battery is able to keep the device running for longer.
