Mills, 15 Mar 2024Apparently, Samsung isn't the only one doing this. US ... moreRight now both AMD and Nvidia are using TSMC for their latest products. That could of course change in the future, but TSMC has said that their non-Taiwanese fabs will NOT produce on the latest nodes at any point. Samsung will likely have a similar policy. And regardless, Apple is rumored to have already purchased the entire production capacity of TSMC's new Arizona fab for years to come.

      Anonymous, 16 Mar 2024Why would Samsung do anything for a budged entry smartphone?? Why? The A1x series is Samsung's best selling phones each year, not the A5x or A3x series and certainly not the S series. You don't really think Samsung is maintaining market share through their flagship phones ala Apple, do you?

        Anonymous, 16 Mar 2024Why would Samsung do anything for a budged entry smartphone?? Because that's the smartphone they released? I know the cheap price makes those phones not Samsung's main priority. But it's still Samsung's responsibility if anything happens.

                    Good. At least this way we will still have hardware flowing a bit when China invades Taiwan.
