The global chip shortage has reportedly delayed some iPad and MacBook production
Don’t worry, production plans for the next iPhone have not been affected by the global semiconductor supply shortage so far, apparently.

If you know what you’re doing, you could upgrade the default memory and storage of Apple’s M1 chip in your M1 Mac.
This major investment on TSMC’s part should help address the global semiconductor shortage and help the company meet demand for semiconductors of all stripes.
Intel is open to working with Apple on future chips. However, its recent anti-Apple ad campaign shows Intel is having a tough time with Apple’s transition to its own Mac silicon.
Writing’s been on the wall for some time given Intel’s ongoing manufacturing and engineering woes. The announcement of Apple silicon seems to have sealed Swan’s fate.
The performance of emulated x64 apps on a Surface Pro X laptop isn’t even close to the latest Macs powered by Apple’s M1 laptop chip and running Rosetta emulation.
These new chips, currently in the works, are said to deliver a significant graphics boost for upcoming Mac desktops, including the Mac Pro workstation.
The Santa Clara, California-headquartered semiconductor company apparently has two Apple M1 competitor chips in prototype stages that are reportedly “almost ready”.
Follow along with this quick tutorial for the instructions showing you how to identify Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
TSMC’s 5nm+ process technology (aka N5P) is a performance-enhanced version of its 5nm process that’s used to fabricate the current Apple A14 and M1 chips.
As for the refreshed MacBook Pro and Mac mini, some of these models are still available with Intel processors.
The first generation of the M1 chip maxes out at 16 gigabytes of RAM and it doesn’t support external GPUs over Thunderbolt.
