Apple used a 5nm M1 chip in the iPad Pro released this year. Recently, media reports said that Apple is testing TSMC’s 3nm chip, and products equipped with this chip are expected to be released in 2022.
Some sources said that Apple’s first 3nm device is likely to be the iPad Pro, and the 2022 iPhone will use 4nm technology chips. Compared with 5nm technology, 3nm technology can increase processor performance by 10% to 15% while reducing power consumption by 25% to 30%. In other words, the iPad Pro equipped with a 3nm chip will have more advanced performance while further reducing power consumption.
Another media said that the iPad Pro update cycle is 12-18 months, so the iPad Pro equipped with a 3nm chip will most likely be released in the fall of 2022.
Considering that Apple has already equipped the M1 chip in the iPad Pro launched this year, it is foreseeable that the next generation of iPad Pro will also use the M series chip in the future. Therefore, in addition to the iPad Pro, the Mac product line is also expected to be equipped with a more advanced 3nm chip, but the media did not give a specific timetable for the Mac update.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mobile phone battery
