Iiveki zokugqibela ze-2018 kunye neveki zokuqala ze-2019 khange zilunge ngakumbi kwinkampani esekwe eCupertino. Ukusuka China, ukuthengiswa kweemodeli ezindala ze-iPhone kwavalwa ngenxa Kwityala elalifakwe nguQualcomm ngokuchasene nenkampani kweli lizwe. Ngethamsanqa iApple, ingadlula kule bhloko ikhupha uhlaziyo lwesoftware.
NgoDisemba 21, inkundla yaseJamani, ukuthengisa okungavumelekanga kokubini kwe-iPhone 7 kunye ne-iPhone 8, ngesizathu esifanayo, kodwa ngeli xesha ichaphazele into yehardware, ke Uhlaziyo lwesoftware ayisosisombululo. Isisombululo esifunyenwe yiApple kukusungula iimodeli ezintsha kwintengiso kunye nemodem ehlaziyiweyo engangophuli imfuneko yenkundla yaseJamani.
Ngokwamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza apho iFOSS Patents ifikelele khona, iwebhusayithi yaseJamani iWinFuture ithi ngokwemithombo eyahlukeneyo ejongene nokusasazwa kwe-iPhone kweli lizwe, inkampani iyakwazisa iimodeli ezininzi eziguqulweyo ze-iPhone 7 kunye ne-iPhone 8 kwintengiso, iimodeli ezingayi kuphazamisana nelungelo elilodwa lomenzi weQualcomm, ukuze zithengiswe ngokukhululekileyo elizweni, kokubini kwiVenkile esemthethweni yeApple nangabathengisi abagunyazisiweyo abohlukeneyo nakwivenkile ekwi-intanethi.
Amabango eWinFuture iApple iya kuqala ukuthengisa iinguqulelo eziguqulweyo ze-iPhone 7 kunye ne-iPhone 8 malunga neeveki ezine. Abathengisi sele befumene iinombolo zemodeli zezixhobo ezitsha. Amanani amatsha emodeli yi-MN482ZD / A ye-7GB ye-iPhone 128 Plus emnyama kunye neMQ6K2ZD / A ye-8GB ye-iPhone 64 kwi-Space Grey. Zombini iinombolo zemodeli zazingazange zisetyenziswe ngaphambili yinkampani.
Kwimpikiswano phakathi kweApple neQualcomm eJamani, izinto zinzima ngakumbi kunaseTshayina, kuba inkundla yaseJamani eyalela ukuthengiswa kwee-iPhones, yatsho ukuba Iifowuni ezixhotyiswe ngeemodem ze-Intel zaphulwe kumalungelo obunikazi beQualcomm, Ingxaki yehardware ebonakala ngathi ixazululwe yiApple.
