The gold rush across the high-end processor market might help Apple's processor manufacturing partner, TSMC, drive harder bargains than in the past. That's because Apple's huge appetite for processors is being met by fast-growing demand for chips for servers. As a result, the cost of the chips used inside Macs, iPads, and iPhones will likely increase, putting even more inflationary pressure on Cupertino's bottom line.

With Apple Silicon its current crown jewel, Apple has continued to rapidly build its presence in enterprise computing throughout 2025, generating significant market share gains as companies accelerate Apple deployments across their fleets.
