Apple’s iPhone 18 model will adopt the 2Nm construction process of TSMC for the next generation A20 chip, which will bring sufficient performance and power efficiency for next year’s iPhones, but it can also be a significant cost that can pass on the Apple customer.
Next year’s iPhone model comes from the latest corroboration weibo-based leikar using Apple TSMC’s 2Nm process. Digital chat stationThose who have sources in the Chinese supply chain. Industry analysts Ming-Chi Kuo and Jeff Pu have claimed earlier, so it seems all but confirmed that Apple will adopt more advanced silicone wafer technology.
Last year, Apple adopted 3Nm chips for its iphones and MACS, which was an upgrade on the pre -5Nm mode. The switch for 3Nm technology brought a similar improvement on 20 percent faster GPU speed, 10 percent faster CPU speed, and 2x fast nerve engine and MACS for iPhone. The N3p Chip Technology of TSMC in the upcoming iPhone 17 series – an extended version of the 3Nm process – but the iPhone 18 is expected to facilitate processor for the convenience of 2Nm adoption, it is expected to bring much higher performance and efficiency benefits.
The words “3Nm” and “2Nm” describe generations of chip construction technology, each with its set of design rules and architecture. As this number is low, they usually indicate small transistors size. Small transistors allow more packed on the same chip, resulting in an increase in processing speed and improves power efficiency.
TSMC plans to start construction of 2Nm chips at the end of 2025, and Apple is expected to be the first company to get chips on the new process. The TSMC 2Nm chip is creating two new features to accommodate production, and is working on approval for a third. TSMC usually creates new fabs when it requires increasing production capacity to handle important orders for chips, and TSMC is expanding in a major way for 2Nm technology.
However, it is expected to be the first major beneficiary of the new process with Apple, it is also likely to face significant costs, which can withstand a more round of price increase on the top of the possible price increase on the iPhone 18 of the iPhone 18 of this year, which is caused by our import tariff. Apple scored another 145 percent tariff affecting 145 percent of tariffs imported from China, which is 10 percent tariff on goods imported from other countries, but it does not seem that it is going to be final.
US President Donald Trump is currently working on the new semiconductor levy that will probably affect all apple equipment. Trump said earlier this week that no one is “getting away from hooks” and there was no tariff exception. ” Apple and other technical companies are going into a separate tariff bucket, “20 percent” are still in place with “fantanel tariff”, and additional tariffs are coming.
