"The production timeline is scheduled for the second half of 2026, if all goes to plan, with the first consumer-ready products shipping in 2017."
Damn, this chip is so powerful it can run a time machine.

If we measured it the original way the actual measurements might still be around 10nm....

TSMC N1.6 doesn't sound as impressive as this article is trying to say it is. Intel has used EUV and has had backside power delivery for much longer, and TSMC N3 was cancelled and split into N3B (basically N3, just paid for by Apple who gets the non-defective chips by paying a premium), N3E, N3P, N3X and N3S. Alll of which suffer from their own problems, including zero density improvements for memory of any kind. N3 fell because TSMC couldn't work out how to have a 25-layer EUV process, so they did less, but this didn't give them the improvements they'd hoped for, so N2 is just a correction of this at an exorbitantly high price. N1.6 is just them playing catch-up once again.

2027 seems too optimistic to me for A16. I am thinking N2 will arrive in consumer products by 2026, and therefore A16 will arrive by 2028 (at the earliest)
2023 - N3 - Apple A17
2024 - N3E - Apple A18 / SDGen4
2025 - N3P - Apple A19 / SDGen5
2026 - N2 - Apple A20 / SDGen6
2027 - N2P - Apple A21 / SDGen7
2028 - A16 - Apple A22 / SDGen8
