A new report from Digitimes (via MacRumors) relays that TSMC’s plan to begin manufacturing 5nm chips is still on schedule. If this is, in fact, the case, it suggests that Apple is still planning to adhere to its iPhone 12 production schedule as closely as possible. Recall, the iPhone 12 will boast an A14 chip that will reportedly be based on a 5nm process.
