Intel has begun producing low-end Apple chipsets

Intel has begun initial production of chips for Apple’s iPhone, iPad, and Mac lineup,the chips being manufactured at Intel are based on its 18A-P process node using Foveros advanced packaging technology. The order mix is roughly 80 percent iPhone, which Kuo says mirrors Apple’s broader device sales mix. More importantly, these are described as low-end or legacy processors, meaning Intel is likely handling chips for older iPhone, iPad, and Mac models still being sold today rather than Apple’s latest flagship chips.There is no indication that users would see any difference in day-to-day performance or quality between Intel-made and TSMC-made chips for these legacy products, since Apple would still control the chip design and final device tuning.Is TSMC slowly being displaced ?
