Apple might not use TSMC's new N2P node for M6 chip, stick to N2 to save on manufacturing costs
TweakTown | 02.02.2026 19:09TL;DR: Apple's next-gen M6 processor will use TSMC's 2nm N2 process instead of the newer N2P node, which Qualcomm and MediaTek will adopt. This choice balances cost savings with minimal performance differences, while Apple continues leveraging architectural upgrades for improved efficiency in its M6, A20 Pro, and A20 chips.
