According to the predictions of Morgan Stanley analysts, Apple will continue to produce single-chip systems using the 4 nanometer technological process next year, and in 2024, Apple plans to use 3 nm chips produced by TSMC in the iPhone 16 series. chips should be called Apple A18 Bionic.

A Morgan Stanley report said TSMC plans to reduce production capacity from 80,000 wafers to 60,000 units per month, most of which will be used by Apple for the iPhone’s single-chip system in 2024.

At the same time, it is reported that the cheaper iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus can use a mass-produced single-user system according to the norms of the 3 nm process of the first generation, while the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 can be used. The Pro Max (Ultra) series can switch to the 3 -nm process of the second generation. In this way, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will not only have higher performance, but also provide lower power consumption and longer battery life. Source
