Earlier this year, Apple contracted TSMC for its entire 2nm manufacturing process in the early stages of its operations,
which is also expected to be used to produce Apple Silicon chips for future Macs.
The iPhone 17 generation will be equipped with a screen with a Ceramic Shield outer glass layer, which is more anti-reflective and scratch-resistant than previous versions.
The source revealed that the new Ceramic Shield glass has been delivered to the supply chain in China.
However, it will not appear in time for the iPhone 16 product line expected to launch this coming September.
