It hasn't been long since Apple unveiled its latest silicon, M2, at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), earlier this week. Now, we are already hearing several talks that suggest Apple will start making a 3nm M2 Pro chip at TSMC, later this year.
According to 9to5Mac, who managed to get a look at research from Jeff Pu of the Haitong Intl Tech Research, Apple will continue with TSMC as its main silicon supplier, and the Taiwanese semi-conductor manufacturing company will reportedly start making advanced M2 Pro chips for Apple, based on a 3nm process.

Currently, the M2 chip uses the same 5nm node that the M1 was built on. The size of the node is important because smaller the node, the less distance there will be between the transistors on the chip. This will increase performance.
Jeff Pu also believes that Apple's long rumored AR/VR mixed reality headset will be launched in Q2 2023. Pu says that the device will be announced after the Chinese New Year, and into production in February of 2023.
