TSMC's yield for N3 is also said to be better than expected, meaning the percentage of non-defective products is lower than anticipated. Per an earlier report,TSMC started mass production of 3nm-based chips late last year so it's safe to assume that the 3nm A17 will be ready in time for iPhone 15's launch in September. if the new process was worth it and whether they should bring out 3nm chipsets in 2023.
