Nvidia executive vice president of operations Debora Shoquist said in a statement that "recent reports are incorrect - Nvidia's next-generation GPU will continue to be produced at TSMC.

Apple may use high-end OLED screens in more of its devices, not necessarily just because it wants to, but also because it may satisfy a penalty it supposedly owes to its OLED supplier, Samsung Display - after reportedly failing to buy enough iPhone screens to make good on its contract.

According to one Samsung executive, though, the Galaxy Fold is "ready" now that its issues have been fixed.

According to SE Daily (via Google Translate), Intel and Samsung are in the final stages of negotiating for additional capacity. Intel is said to have chosen to work with Samsung over TSMC due to concerns about Huawei and AMD's improved competitive performance.
