It was exposed that Apple's A16 processor was not eligible for the first batch of 3nm TSMC's production capacity was split in half by Intel

The iPhone13 series has been released at the end of September, and the stronger processor and imaging system have won the favor of consumers, and it is difficult to find a machine for a while, and it is jokingly called "Thirteen Fragrances" by netizens.

More news exposed that the iPhone 14 will have a leapfrog upgrade in the imaging system, so that fruit fans are more looking forward to it, but the latest news broke that the iPhone 14 series will not be upgraded to the new A16 processor, and the iPhone 14 will continue to use the A15 chip of this year's iPhone 13.

What's even more disappointing is that the A16 processor seems to be missing out on 3nm.

The news said that the mass production time of TSMC's 3nm is expected to start in the fourth quarter of next year, and the first batch of production capacity is divided equally by Apple and Intel.

Obviously, the fourth quarter is definitely unable to catch up with the stock demand of the iPhone 14, which means that the A16 processor can only "yield" to 4nm.

Previously, it was revealed that the 4nm A16 code name Crete, the large core was upgraded to Avalanche, and the small core was upgraded to Blizzard, which was about 20% higher than the performance of the A15.
