TSMC to start manufacturing iPhone 7s and iPhone 8 chips soon
TSMC is expected to produce more than 100 million A11 chips before the end of the year, which is slightly more than last year's production. Apart from that, however, production is on par with last year's schedule, meaning rumors of the iPhone 8 launching near the end of 2017, rather than together with the 7s pair, might actually be true, which would explain the lack of a significantly higher production this year.
While we don't yet know that much about this year's upcoming iPhone 8, a few things seem to be set in stone – the edge-to-edge display, the lack of a physical button on the front, and the addition of wireless charging being a few examples. If you're itching for more information about the device and its siblings, you can take a look at our rumor round-up, or maybe just see what we think Apple's newest flagship will look like.
