Apple Taps China's CXMT for Memory Chips Amid AI-Driven Supply Squeeze
Apple has begun testing memory chips from Chinese semiconductor maker CXMT for use in products including iPhones and MacBooks. This move comes as the artificial-intelligence boom puts pressure on global supplies of these essential components.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Apple has held preliminary discussions with CXMT, a Chinese company known for its high-quality memory chips.
This shift towards using CXMT's memory chips could be a strategic effort by Apple to reduce dependence on other suppliers and mitigate the risks associated with supply chain disruptions.
