flag Apple to source entry-level M-chips from Intel by 2027, diversifying supply beyond TSMC.

flag Apple is reportedly planning to source entry-level M-series chips from Intel starting in 2027, diversifying its supply chain beyond TSMC amid geopolitical and manufacturing risks. flag The shift, driven by U.S. policy goals and supply chain resilience, would use Intel’s 18A process node for lower-end chips in devices like the MacBook Air and iPad Pro. flag Production depends on Intel delivering its PDK 1.0/1.1 by early 2026, with shipments expected in the second or third quarter of 2027. flag Annual volumes could reach 15 to 20 million units, while high-performance chips will remain with TSMC. flag The move reflects Apple’s strategic balance between innovation, control, and domestic manufacturing support.
