2022 iPhones and Macs May Feature 3nm Chips

[mongobongo]

everybody knows that...nobody said about actual physical feature, but since 3nm will be increased in density and speed and also in reduce power...but, again i suspect by the 2024 2nm process, the SoC with the same amount of Ram, can it be smaller than the current M1
This is great news

Well 4 posts down you yourself are talking about 1nm physical size and the size of silicon atoms. If we agree that the terms used to market these chips have nothing to do with physical size then that's not really relevant is it?

i wonder if we will ever hit a plateau with processor nodes. i'm sure we may not but part of me says we will.

For Intel, Moore's law already ended. For Apple, it is still going great. But not sure how far do we keep on going.

NM is the density and not the actual size.
