For a very long time, we have been hearing about TSMC’s 2-nanometer process for chipset development. Earlier, Apple was reported to build its in-house chips with the 2nm process to boost its performance, however, later it was reported that plans had been delayed. Now, in a new report, Apple is speculated to be one of the few early adopters of the new TSMC chip-making process for the iPhone 17 Pro models, and it will reportedly start mass production by 2025.

The report suggests of the rumours are true then the 2nm chipset will likely enhance the performance by 15% in comparison to 3nm chips. It may also result in less power consumption from 25% to 30%. Therefore, the next year’s iPhone 17 Pro could be a significant upgrade in terms of performance and efficiency.
Alongside the 2nm chipset, the iPhone 17 Pro will likely offer a 12GB RAM, for the additional storage required to smoothly conduct AI-related tasks and performance. Therefore, we can expect that Apple has bigger plans for iPhone 17 series in space of performance and Apple Intelligence.
