    Recent iOS devices take advantage of the GPU technology recent developed by ARM for their chip designs. That's not going to translate into GPUs for Macs, which are going to continue to use Intel CPU technology (despite uniformed rumors to the contrary). But that doesn't mean Apple can't create their own GPU tech for Macs. I personally would be surprised if Apple bothered, seeing as the company has blatantly suffered from what I call Mac Malaise for over three years. (Kick 🦵 Boot  👢 Prod ⚡). Staying out of GPU patent lawsuits is of course a further concern.
    Whatever "technology" used, and iOS devices GPUs have nothing to do with ARM core technology, it's all about languages it uses.. so OpenGL, Metal, Vulkan or DirectX.. so it's going to "translate" into GPUs for Macs quite easilly.

    I think that Swatch underestimated the approach of smartwatches, they thought apples will look rather like a tiny computer, than a jewel device. Oh, mistake.. watches behemoth rings the alert. It reminds me when Nokia realised what iPhone really is..
