Apple could be one of the only major device makers in 2023 to adopt the newer and more advanced 3nm process technology, as Qualcomm and MediaTek are unclear on whether the newer process is worth it.The chip makers are reportedly undecided given the "unclear sales prospects for Android handsets."Qualcomm and MediaTek, however, have not yet made a clear decision on whether to join the 3nm camp this year, despite both hoping to keep up with Apple's process upgrade for their flagship mobile SoCs, the sources continued.Sure Apple will have some kind of 'hype train' they can run for an extra quarter , but that isn't going to be all that bad.Apple broke a tradition it maintained for 21 years last week, releasing no new Macs in the fourth quarter of the year for the first time since 2000, as previously anticipated devices like the next-generation MacBook Pro and Mac Pro models have apparently been pushed out to this year."
