From the linked article:

The ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌'s A17 Pro chip is fabricated using TSMC's N3B process, but Apple reportedly plans to switch to the lower-cost N3E process for next year's standard A17 chip designed for the ‌iPhone 16‌ and ‌iPhone 16‌ Plus.

This will mark the first time that Apple has designed a chip specifically for its standard iPhone models.

In previous years, Apple simply gave the entire ‌iPhone‌ lineup the same chip before staggering them by one year between the standard and the Pro models starting with 2022's iPhone 14.
