iPhone 8 it seems to be following Apple's normal iPhone release process, and now we have a second confirmation of this from a separate source. An hour ago I told you that the iPhone 8 entered the penultimate verification process in order to launch it on the global markets, the final one to start in June, and the production in August.
Reinforcing the idea that Apple is following the normal process for the release of the iPhone 8, we now know that the Taiwanese from TSMC have already started producing the new A11 chip with the iPhone 8 processor. This new chip is produced using a 10nm manufacturing process, with Apple following launches an iPhone 8 with a much more powerful and efficient processor from an energy point of view.
At the moment, the production process of the A11 chip in the iPhone 8 is initiated in a phase where few units are produced to check the ability to manufacture units without defects. After the first tests made by TSMC for the manufacture of the new A11 chip for iPhone 8, the company will initiate the mass production process, most likely in July.
iPhone 8 – the new A11 chip has already entered production
Although the production of this new A11 chip for iPhone 8 initially had problems due to the technologies used, it seems that TSMC has managed to solve everything that prevents its manufacture. It was expected that this would happen, and this despite the fact that many rumors said that the iPhone 8 would be released later because of this problem, it being one of the total.
So far it has been said that the iPhone 8 production will be delayed due to various problems with a series of new components that Apple will use. Well, it seems that everything regarding the new A11 chip of the iPhone 8 has been resolved, but also the others, because Apple's partners have already started hiring people for the production of the new terminal.
"As for TSMC's 10nm process, the node technology has obtained orders from Apple, MediaTek and HiSilicon, according to the sources. TSMC has begun 10nm chip production for Apple's next-generation iPhone 8 series, the sources said. Production was once affected by issues involving stacking components in the backend integrated fan-out packaging process, but they have already been resolved, the sources said."
At the moment it seems that the iPhone 8 will indeed be launched in the fall of this year by the Apple company, and not in November, as some recent information said. The latest details come from highly credible sources, so they should be viewed with more confidence regarding the iPhone 8 launch.
