The recent rumors that TSMC may be the exclusive manufacturer for Apple A10 chip coming in 2016, ie in the race surpassed Samsung contract

After iPhone 6s, 6s Plus and Pro 12.9 inch iPad officially launched some time ago, sources have begun to draw attention to the products of Apple next year. Commercial Times, a Chinese newspaper has confirmed the company’s chip maker TSMC Taiwan will be the exclusive manufacturer for Apple A10 chip, Apple’s next generation A9.

An interesting detail is developing TSMC 10 nm chip own company and this could be the advantages of Taiwan manufacturers than Samsung in the race for the contract manufacturer for Apple A10 chip.
