Intel 3

Intel doesn’t have the ability to accept orders from many other companies. One of Intel’s few customers, Altera, was bought up by Intel.

There’s a reason why I was talking about GlobalFoundries from Buffalo, New York. They were the last 3rd party fabricator of USA.

So no. Intel cannot make iPhones, even if they come a year or two later than TSMC’s 3nm process (TSMC was making the 3nm iPhone 15 last year), it is meaningless in the scope of Apple or Qualcomm.
