Samsung has reduced the price of its 2nm wafer to $20,000, undercutting TSMC by 33%. This move aims to fill its 2nm fab capacity and secure returns on investments. Despite challenges, Samsung recently secured a $16.5 billion deal with Tesla for AI chip production in its Texas facility. Samsung's competitive pricing strategy may attract clients unwilling to pay TSMC's premium prices, while TSMC remains dominant in the 2nm market with multiple large clients.
