Anticipating Apple's M3 MacBooks: Shipment Forecast and Supply Chain Reports

Apple is expected to release its first MacBooks powered by TSMC's 3nm fabrication process in 2024, according to a shipment forecast by DigiTimes. The report predicts a 4.7% growth in notebook shipments in 2024, driven by the introduction of new products, including MacBooks with 3nm-based chips. Rumors have previously suggested that Apple may release new Macs with the M3 chip this year, but recent reports indicate that the launch may be delayed until 2024. The M3 chip is expected to offer performance and power efficiency improvements compared to the current M2 chip.
