Apple reportedly has a deal to use Intel-made chips again
Apple and Intel reached a “preliminary agreement” for Intel to make chips for Apple hardware, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday. Apple had famously moved on from Intel-powered computers with its highly successful transition to Apple Silicon, but now it appears the two companies will be working closely together again.
The WSJ says that it’s “still unclear” what Apple products will get Intel chips. Intel spokesperson Kiana Ducey declined to comment. Apple didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment.
Bloomberg reported this week that Apple has held “exploratory discussions” with Intel and Samsung about having them make Apple’s processor chips in the US — currently, Apple works with Taiwan-based TSMC to produce those. Supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said late last year that Intel is “expected” to start shipping “Apple’s lowest-end M processor” as soon as 2027. Bloomberg also reported in September that Intel had asked Apple about a potential investment and how to work more together.
Update, May 8th: Intel declined to comment.
