Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) plans to use latest chip producing technology from Taiwan's TSMC (NYSE:TSM) in its iPhones and Macbooks next year, the Nikkei Asia newspaper reported on Wednesday.
Currently under development, the A17 mobile processor will be mass-produced using the Taiwanese chipmaker's N3E chipmaking tech, expected to be available in the second half of 2023.

Citing people familiar with the matter, the report added that the processor will be used in the premium entry in the iPhone lineup scheduled to launch next year.
Neither AAPL nor TSM responded to Reuters request for a comment.
The current iPhone model features an A15 processor chip. The company confirmed in its recent launch event that the iPhone 14 Pro models will also have the same processor.
