I dunno, to me it seems they should invest more.
From 60k a month to 80k a month and only next year doesn't sound like a significant-enough increase.
Yes.......that's 20x12 extra a year but that still looks too small lol.

And also, what if Samsung goes into this buissness/increases production too? This extra investment will be beneficial to compete with Samsung in the sensor market lol.

it could actually be a gigantic increase in sensor output if it also means switching to bigger wafers - unfortunately the news doesn't touch on the subject which wafer sizes are used
