According to MacRumors , citing sources close to the supply chain, Apple and Intel are designing chips with 3-nanometer TSMC technology , and the first products equipped with these processors are expected in the second half of next year. To be sent to the market. The iPads are said to be the first Apple products whose beating heart will be a chip with 3nm lithography, and it turns out that Apple smartphones ‌ will rely on a.

According to TSMC, the company’s 3nm technology, compared to 5nm technology, can increase processing performance by 10 to 15 percent and reduce energy consumption by 25 to 30 percent. If confirmed today, this is the second time in recent years that Apple has prioritized the iPad before using new technology chips in the iPhone. As a reminder, last year, the iPad Air was the first product to be introduced earlier than the iPhone due to the Corona virus epidemic and its consequences, and was equipped with a 5-nanometer chip. Of course, we can not say with certainty that Apple will follow this procedure in the next iPad Air or Pro.
