The near future of the smartphone chipset market is looking bleak, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. According to their latest report, Apple is lowering demand for 3nm chips; Qualcomm is also scaling back production, pushing Dutch ASML to cut EUV equipment shipment for 2024 by about 20-30%.
Kuo revealed the current market consensus was the semiconductor business would bottom out in the second half of this year, but the slump might stretch to Q2 2024.
ASML, previously Advanced Semiconductor Materials Lithography, is a company that has HQ in Veldhoven, Netherlands and is a major equipment supplier to chipset foundries worldwide. Its forecast for lower shipments has three major reasons, wrote Kuo:
The first was Apple facing a decreasing demand for MacBook and iPad devices after the sharp decline of WFH (work-from-home). The new Apple chips and mini LED screens are not enough for customers to switch to new devices, and Cupertino posted a 30% decline in laptops shipped (17 million in total for the fiscal year), as well as a 22% decrease in shipped iPads (48 million).
The interest in 3 nm chips from Qualcomm is also lower due to Huawei’s decision to stop sourcing chips from the San Diego company, with or without 5G modems. There’s also the expected higher penetration of Exynos 2400 chips by Samsung, which is hurting Qualcomm’s overall forecast.
Demand for Samsung’s 3GAP+ and Intel’s 20A processes is lower than expected, and on top of everything, Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix are not expected to launch a major memory advancement until 2025-2027.

For your information, in 2022, Dimensity 9200's GPU was faster than A16 : https://benchmarks.ul.com/hardware/phone/Vivo+X90+Pro+review https://benchmarks.ul.com/hardware/phone/Apple+iPhone+14+Pro+Max+review
When A17 Pro in 3nm hardly beat Dimensity 9200 in 4nm? A17 Pro on 15 Pro Max throttled by 35% in less than 2 minutes on 3DMark's Stress Test and fall under the 9200+ on Xiaomi 13T Pro! You've fooled by a single benchmark : Geekbench….
Stop with your narratives and your lies. All these game designers create one and and the same game for both OS. Even more absurd is you claiming the A17 Pro is a better SOC and yet at the same time it cannot match last year's Android flagship SO…
