M2 chip production was reportedly paused for two months according to TheElec.
Apple is said to have "completely halted production" of the M2 chips from January to February as demand for the M2-powered MacBook was lower than it had expected. While some production has resumed in March, TheElec says it is only half the level of previous years.
The M2 and its variants can be found in the MacBook Air (2022), the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros.
