New Information Has Surfaced

It has been previously reported that two models in the iPhone series – iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are going to be powered by the A16 bionic chips whereas the vanilla iPhone and iPhone 14 Max are going to be powered by an enhanced version of the A15 Bionic processors. Reports regarding the A16 bionic chip in the past have suggested that it might be built on TSMC’s 4nm process, however, a new report from tipster ShrimpApplePro suggests that the same might not be the case.

The tipster has shared that, a reliable source has informed that the A16 Bionic chip might still be built on the 5nm process from TSMC which is also known as the TSMC N5P. Although the tipster has stated that it might be unlikely and asked to take information with a pinch of salt. The source states that the A16 Bionic could be based on the TSMCFF5 which could mean that it could be an enhanced process node.
