Apple tests CXMT memory chips for i Phones and Mac Books, sources say.

Apple is testing memory chips made by ChangXin Memory Technologies, or CXMT, in product lines including the iPhone and MacBook, The Wall Street Journal reported on Aug. 9, citing people familiar with the matter. The effort could help ease a memory shortage driven by the artificial-intelligence boom.

Apple has held preliminary discussions with CXMT, described in the report as China's largest chipmaker, about supplying components. The goal is to use the chips in some devices sold in China, the people said. Reuters said it could not immediately verify the report. Apple and CXMT did not respond to requests for comment.
