Overview
- A Weibo tipster known as Mobile Phone Chip Expert is cited by multiple outlets as saying Apple’s A20 series carries the codenames Borneo (A20) and Borneo Ultra (A20 Pro).
- Reporting maps the standard A20 to the base iPhone 18 and the A20 Pro to the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max as well as Apple’s first foldable iPhone.
- Coverage says the A20 family will shift to TSMC’s 2nm N2 process, with reported targets of 10–15% higher performance or 25–30% lower power versus 3nm N3E.
- China Times sourcing relayed by Tom’s Guide claims TSMC’s 2nm wafers will cost at least 50% more than 3nm, and separate leaks peg the foldable near $2,000.
- Wccftech adds that Apple is expected to adopt WMCM packaging and has secured significant early N2 capacity, though neither Apple nor TSMC has confirmed these details.
