#3nm#

Samsung's response to rumors of 3nm wafer defects in its foundry business. The numbers might be exaggerated.

Samsung is struggling with 3nm yield and energy efficiency, losing orders to TSMC. TSMC gathers most 3nm orders. Market share gap widens.

TSMC's 3nm series process capacity is highly sought after by tech giants, with orders lined up until 2026. Apple's iPhone 16 series is also expected.

TSMC announced its May 2024 revenue and plans for 3nm process and new factories.
