Samsung will be the main supplier for Apple's next generation chip, according to Maeil Business Newspaper via Reuters.

The paper says that Samsung will be responsible for about 75% of production. It didn't offer any details on how much the contract is worth or who the other supplier/suppliers would be. However, it did say that Samsung will make the chips using its factory in Austin, Texas.

This report contradicts a previous one that suggested Apple would shift A9 production to TSMC because of its better yields.
