Apple's 2028 iPhones to Use 1.4nm A22 Pro Chips

**TL;DR:** Apple's 2028 iPhones to Use 1.4nm A22 Pro Chips

---

4-nanometer chips with the high-end 2028 iPhone models, reports Bloomberg . Chip supplier Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) will make the majority of Apple's A22 Pro chips, but Apple is also considering having Intel make some of them. The current iPhone 17 models use a third-generation N3P 3-nanometer process. The iPhone 18 Pro , ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, and foldable iPhone expected in September 2026 will be the first to have chips built on a next-generation 2nm process. 4nm in 2028.

4nm chips for several years, and its A14 node will bring up to 15 percent better performance than chips built on its N2 2nm node. Alternatively, the chips will offer the same performance but with 30 percent power savings. Every step down in node size comes with higher production costs and limited capacity due to the difficulty of manufacturing the most advanced chips. Powerful and efficient chips from TSMC are in high demand from AI server manufacturers like NVIDIA, leading to a more limited supply for consumer devices. Duri

Tech news is rarely just a gadget headline. We frame what changed, who benefits, and what to watch next as details firm up.

The immediate headline is only the entry point. The more useful question is who gains leverage, who faces new risk, and whether the change is durable or experimental.

Track whether the story affects total cost of ownership: subscriptions, compatibility, downtime risk, or support burden.

1) If money or security is involved, wait for primary sources. 2) Test changes on a small scale before committing. 3) Note what would falsify your current assumptions.
