The A20 and the A20 Pro will potentially be Apple’s first 2nm chipsets that will be found in the iPhone 18 series, with the company jumping to the newer lithography thanks to TSMC’s continued efforts. Unfortunately, this shift will not be cheap, as each wafer manufactured using the cutting-edge process is estimated to cost $30,000, making the Cupertino giant one of the few names that will jump on the 2nm bandwagon. However, according to one analyst, the company will be looking at other packaging technologies to improve the chipset’s attributes and lower costs, with the A20 expected to gravitate from InFO (Integrated Fan-Out) packaging to Multi-Chip Module Packaging (WMCM) in 2026.
The same WMCM packaging has been explored on several occasions, but the iPhone 18’s A20 will likely be the fi
