Two reports state that Apple is on-track to debuting its first computers with the all-new A14-X Chip sometime during the 4th Quarter this year.

From DigitTimes:

Apple will kick off its 5nm wafer starts at TSMC for its new Apple Silicon processors starting the fourth quarter of 2020, with monthly output estimated at 5,000-6,000 wafers, according to industry sources.

From ChinaTimes:

Industry sources pointed out that the first A14X processor designed by Apple has been finalized and will begin mass production using TSMC’s 5nm process before the end of the year.

Apple’s supply chain industry pointed out that by the end of this year, Apple is expected to launch a Macbook with a 12-inch Retina Display, using a self-developed and designed A14X processor. The processor is codenamed Tonga and supports a USB Type-C interface. It will weigh less than 1 kilogram.

Because of the low power consumption of the Arm architecture processor, the battery life of the new Macbook can reach 15 to 20 hours.

You can be sure that we at CompuScoop will be announcing the availability of these computers as soon as possible!
