As we said yesterday, Apple has started a lawsuit against the processor manufacturer Qualcomm. The basis of the procedure is the fact that Qualcomm may have been collecting undue royalties from the Cupertino company in the amount of 1.000 million dollars. And it is that although many do not know it, the Snapdragon manufacturer also makes parts of the iPhone, more specifically the telecommunications chip, despite the fact that this latest generation of iPhone and iPad have also had Intel chips. Definitely, This is the response that Qualcomm has given to Apple for its recent accusations.
Apple has accused Qualcomm of charging it five times more than it should in terms of patent rights. This has been the response of Qualcomm:
Right now we are reviewing the entire procedure in great detail. It seems pretty clear that Apple's allegations are unfounded. Apple has intentionally manipulated our contracts and negotiations. They do not appreciate the enormous value of the technology that we invent.
Apple has been carrying out attacks on Qualcomm's businesses in many other countries. We will take advantage of this lawsuit to expose Apple's practices - Dan Rosenberg, Executive Chairman of Qualcomm Incorporated.
Apple has used the Qualcomm connectivity chip in all its devices until the arrival of the iPad Pro and iPhone 7 generation, when it has reduced its dependence on Qualcomm by giving Intel the possibility of including its own, which have been shown to be quite efficient and powerful. In the meantime, we will have to be alert to the legal proceedings between the Cupertino company and one of the most important manufacturers of processors in the consumer electronics scene, and it is that Qualcomm is not just any company, it has a reputation built over years of good products.
