Apple Silicon es one of the greatest innovations in the history of Apple. It has made it possible to manufacture products unimaginable to date. Without going any further, I am currently writing this article on a MacBook Air M1. A fast laptop with an impressive battery that never gets hot or noisy because it doesn’t need a fan. Explain this to someone with an Intel computer.
Since the announcement of this new step, those of Cupertino have launched several products with this technology. The 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro and M1 Max chip, another version with the M2 Pro and M2 Max, an iMac M1, the Mac Studio, etc. The next logical step is the M3 chip, but It’s not good news that we have to announce today
and more delays
According to EETimes, an electronics magazine, TSMC has problems with the production of 3 nanometer transistors, which would be the ones that would be used for the M3 and A17 chips. Demand far exceeds supply and, in principle, delays are expected until 2024.
We don’t know how this will affect Apple. In principle, it seems that the first computers with the M3 chip were planned for the end of 2023
Apple is TSMC’s largest customer, so we understand it will get preferential treatment over others, but in the end, reality is what it is. Production takes time and entails costs that were previously unforeseen
Anyway, these are rumours. There is no official confirmation that they are true or not, so it is important to take them with caution. It’s true that they make sense what they describe is a reality in the industryand that it is very doable, but these are still rumors.
