Apple's next major chip upgrade could come next year — TSMC's 2nm process on track for production beginning in 2025

M3 MacBook Pro review.

Following Apple’s introduction of the 3nm manufacturing process into its Apple silicon chips for iPhone and Mac last year, a new report has revealed manufacturing partner TSMC is already honing its 2nm process ahead of production starting in 2025. 

The A17 Pro silicon found inside the iPhone 15 Pro and the M3 chips powering the new M3 MacBook Pro are made using a 3nm process, which packs more processing power and efficiency into each transistor, making them faster and more energy-savvy. As such, moving to 3nm has been a big boon to Apple’s processing power for 2023 and beyond, and we’d expect 2nm to have the same effect.
