An iPhone with an Intel processor? I doubt it, it will just make it

intel-apple

The news has appeared in recent days, and has spread like wildfire: Apple could use Intel processors in its mobile devices. This headline is really wrong, it may simply be a bad translation or a misinterpretation of the initial news, published by MacRumors. The iPhone will not have Intel processors, or at least that is not what the news says. What then does the American manufacturer have to do with it and why is it now related to Apple? We will tell you about it below.

Intel has recently reached an agreement with ARM that allows it to manufacture microprocessors under the ARM architecture, which is the one used by most mobile devices, including iPhones. With this recent agreement on the table, The Cupertino company could already be talking with Intel so that it is in charge of manufacturing its processors, which will continue to be designed by Apple, but they would be manufactured using the enormous manufacturing capacity of Intel, let's not forget it announced its 10nm processors for 2017. The first ARM processor for iPhone or iPad made by Intel would not arrive until 2018, according to the experts, and it would never be exclusive, rather, it would share that privilege with TSMC.

Why might Apple decide to trust Intel? In addition to its obvious experience and manufacturing capacity, it is important that it is an American company, and that therefore Apple could bring part of the manufacture of iPhone components to its country, something that will be very well seen after the criticism received. for its activities abroad. Let's not forget either that Intel refused to make the first processor for the iPhone., something that will surely be nailed in the heart of the company, and can influence the agreement to finally come to fruition. Despite everything, we must insist: the iPhone will not have an Intel processor.

    All this "clarification" is poorly focused, if the negotiations go well, the iphone will have an intel processor, but the architecture will be arm and not x86

      The initial rumors do not go there. The iPhone will continue to carry A12 or A13 processor (or whichever it touches) only that manufactured by Intel.
