Apple and Samsung literally have a love-hate relationship, basically because Apple as a company does not have the mechanical power that the South Korean company does have to make a lot of hardware. Perhaps it has something to do with Samsung making everything from washing machines to high-end televisions. However, with the iPhone 7, Apple decided to slightly break its dependence on Samsung for processors.
But the love affair with TSMC (current manufacturer of processors for iOS devices) does not seem to have lasted long, Everything indicates that Apple would have returned to do business with the Asian firm in order to produce part of its processors again.
But don't be so quick to fear your battery performance, at least that was one of the hottest rumors when it was shown that the iPhone 6s that had Samsung processors was more gaston than the model that used TSMC processors. This alliance that the team of The Korea Herald has announced it would not arrive until the end of 2017, that is, we would see it in what would be the iPhone "9" presented during 2018, assuming that the calculations do not fail us, so it would have to manufacture the A10 processor, so We will not see Samsung processors in the special device that Apple is launching in September to mark its XNUMXth anniversary.
Apparently this business seems to have taken hold while Apple continues to deal with the Asian company a major expedition of OLED panels that would mount this supposed special edition iPhone. The reality is that no doubt has ever been sown about the performance and quality of the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company processors, but it seems that in Cupertino they are determined that Samsung continues to place its hands on all iPhones. The reality is that the Korean firm works well and its success precedes it.
I really do not agree with Apple using samsun cpu or any component since with its great recent failures it is enough to never trust the brand again, in addition to that if the cpu manufactured by Samsung are much more expensive of current, and for Apple it would not be a great strategy since that is not their goal, I keep saying that they themselves (Apple) have enough potential and technology to develop their hardware themselves (not for pleasure they make the best terminals on the market in general pc, mobiles etc ..., and for me samsung they are more roll than film they want to cover so much in the market that they do not focus on a product with total quality, in a few words more propaganda than real utility iron that pumps jeej, good to not continue to tire always and bet on the ideals of Steve Jobs of being unique out of the ordinary and exquisite with their products ... greetings from Cuba
