"iPhone 16 Pro: Advanced Chip Technology, Faster 5G, Wi-Fi 7, and Camera Upgrades"

Apple has placed order commitments with chip supplier TSMC for its second-generation 3nm chip fabrication process, N3E, which is expected to be used in all models of next year's iPhone 16 lineup. TSMC has already moved N3E to volume production and plans to replace N3 with the upgraded version starting in 2024. The N3E process offers improved yield, chip performance, and power consumption. Apple is projected to take 100% of TSMC's capacity in 2023, contributing as much as $3.4 billion in sales. The iPhone 16 models will be equipped with A18-branded chips based on TSMC's N3E node.
