Apple has been testing memory chips from China's CXMT across products like iPhones and MacBooks to address shortages caused by the AI boom. The company held early talks with CXMT, China's largest chipmaker by market value, aiming to use these chips in devices sold in China. This move reflects Apple's strategy to diversify suppliers amid global supply constraints. Meanwhile, laptop makers HP and Acer have already started using CXMT chips in devices sold outside the US to ease shortages.
