Njengezinye izinkampani eziningi ezinkulu, i-Apple ivame ukuthola ezinye izinkampani ukwenza ngcono izinsizakalo nemikhiqizo yazo. Ngokusho I-ArsTechnica, ukutholwa okulandelayo kwenkampani yeCupertino kungaba Ubuchwepheshe Bokucabanga, uTim Cook nenkampani abebexoxisana naye isikhathi esithile. I-Imagination Technologies ingumklami wama-PowerVR GPU afakwe kuma-processor we-A9 ne-A9X afakiwe kunoma iyiphi i-iPhone, i-iPod Touch yesimanje noma i-iPad. I-Apple isebenzisa ukwakheka kwale nkampani kusuka ku-processor ye-A4 abayifakile ku-iPhone 4 naku-iPad 2.
Kusabalale amahlebezi okuthi i-Apple ibihlela ukuyakha ama-GPU wakho wamadivayisi eselula nentshisekelo yokuthola i-Imagination Technologies exoxwe yi-ArsTechnica izoqinisekisa la mahemuhemu. Yize ama-chip e-A-series e-Apple asevele esebenzisa ama-PowerVR GPU akhethiwe noma aguquliwe, asebenzisa kakhulu ukwakheka okujwayelekile. Uma i-Apple ithathe isinqumo sokuyithola inkampani ebheka ukuyithenga okwamanje, inkampani esebenza kuTim Cook izokwakha i-100% ye-GPU ezosetshenziswa amadivayisi wayo we-iOS.
Yize kunemibiko yaphambilini, abakwa-Apple bathi abahlelile ukwenza isithembiso sokuthenga i-Imagination Tech, kepha kube nezingxoxo ezithile nale nkampani.

Yize kunemininingwane yakamuva, i-Apple ithi ayihlelile ukwenza isithembiso sokuthenga i-Imagination Tech.Kodwa ibe nezingxoxo nenkampani.
Ukuthengwa kwe-Imagination Technologies kuzovumela i-Apple ukuthi izenzele ama-GPU ayo, kepha ...
Uma kuthengiwe, ukutholwa kwe-Imagination Technologíes kungaba yinto ebaluleke kakhulu eyenziwe yi-Apple emlandweni wayo. Njengamanje une- inani lama- $ 850 wezigidi, inani elikhuphuke ngama-20% kusukela i-Ars Technica ishicilele intshisekelo evela enkampanini yama-apula ukuthenga inkampani edizayinela ama-GPU amadivayisi wabo weselula i-Apple uqobo uye washesha ukuphika. Kepha ayikho inkampani ethanda ukuthi izinhlelo zayo zaziwe ngaphambi kokuzifeza futhi i-Apple ngeke ibe ncane ngalomqondo, kufanele sikhumbule lapho bethenga iBeats Electronics nentukuthelo yabaholi benkampani yeCupertino ukubona ukuthi uDkt. UDre ufake ividiyo ebungaza lesi sivumelwano.
Ngokuthenga i-Imagination Technologies, i-Apple izolawula enye into ebalulekile ye-iPhone, iPod Touch ne-iPad futhi ithole ukuzimela okuningi kwezinye izinkampani. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ama-processor we-A-series yiwona ahlinzeka ngokusebenza okuhle kakhulu unyaka nonyaka futhi lokho ngokwengxenye kubonga ukulawula inkampani ye-Cupertino ekukho kokubili isoftware yayo ne-hardware yayo. Uma futhi baklama ama-GPU abo, ukusebenza kwamadivayisi we-iOS kungangcono nakakhulu. Sizobona ukuthi kwenzekani ekugcineni, kepha umbono muhle kakhulu. Ingabe kungenzeka ukukusebenzisa?
