Next Year's iPhone 17 Unlikely to Feature TSMC's First 2nm Chip

I mean, none of this matters because iOS doesn't even push these chips to their limits.

Give me more RAM ffs, so sick of reloading apps and safari on a £1000+ device every time I either look at an email or lock my phone for 1 minute.

Cheap Tim.

It matters because the smaller die size means better battery life. Incidentally, more RAM means worse battery life.

What is the fascination with die sizes. Everyone puts sooo much stock into N3E. N3B, 2nm, 3nm. 0.1nm. does it really make that much of a difference. I remember when users didn't care at all about the SoC.

Now "Oh M4 Max has to to have "X" nm die or its over."

It’s not the size, since that’s all nonsense, it’s about efficiency with improved performance.
