In the case of Apple's iPhone 16 series, the industry is full of expectations for the future development of mobile phone processors. Tianfeng International Securities analyst Guo Ming𠫓¹ revealed that Apple's planned iPhone 17 series next year will be equipped with chips using TSMC's enhanced 3nm process, while the iPhone 18 Pro launched in 2026 is expected to use a more advanced 2nm

At present, TSMC's 3nm process production capacity is facing high demand, and has expanded three times this year, and is transforming some 5nm equipment to meet 3nm production needs. This strong market demand not only comes from Apple, but also includes positive feedback from other customers, indicating the market's desire for advanced processes.

With the continuous enhancement of AI functions, the industry generally believes that Apple's iPhone 16 series will lay a solid foundation for future products after the full use of TSMC's 3nm process. In addition, TSMC's 2nm process may exceed the production scale of 3nm in the future, although the specific capacity data has not been announced.

All of this bodes well for Apple's keen insight in technological innovation and market demand, bringing consumers a more powerful device experience. Expect to see breakthroughs in these technologies in future products that drive progress across the smartphone industry.
