Apple has shot to the head of the queue for a brand new chipset that could make future devices incredibly powerful. It’s not likely to affect the iPhone 16, however.
As reported by DigiTimes, TSMC, the world's leading chip manufacturer and one of Apple's biggest supply chain partners, is ramping up its production strategy for its 2nm chip process, which is denser and more efficient than the tech found in the iPhone 15 line. In that report, it said: “Apple is widely believed to be the initial client to utilize the process, according to industry sources”. This isn't the first time Apple has scooped up the early supply of TSMC's next-gen silicon, having also bought out the initial supply of the 3nm process which powers the iPhone 15 Pro and its M3 Macs.
