Kubonakala kungakholakali ukuthi i-Apple ingakwazi kanjani "ukuminyanisa" into elula kubo, njengokukwazi ukuzenzela i-chip yabo ephethe Ukudluliswa kwedatha ye-5G. Ngemuva kokushiya iphrojekthi yayo yokuqala yokwakha eyakhe chip ye-5G, i-Apple yathenga isigaba se-Intel semodemu eshiwo ngo-2019 ukuze ekugcineni ikwazi ukuklama nokwenza i-chip yayo ye-5G enesiqinisekiso esigcwele, ngokusekelwe kubuchwepheshe bomkhiqizi weprosesa waseNyakatho Melika.
Nokho, eminyakeni emithathu kamuva, njengoba leso sigaba sesivele senziwe, i-Apple ayikakakwazi ukwenza imodemu ye-5G ukuze ikwazi ukukhuphuka kumadivayisi ayo, futhi ngaleyo ndlela inganciki Qualcomm. Ngisho nangobuchwepheshe be-Intel onabo ngemva kokuthenga kwakho. UKuo usanda kukhipha ukuthi ama-iPhones angonyaka ozayo asazofaka imodemu yeQualcomm. Wow indwangu.
I-Ming-Chi Kuo ngisanda kuthumela ku-akhawunti yakho Twitter, ukuthi labo abavela eCupertino abasakwazi ukwenza imodemu ye-5G yamadivayisi wabo. Uqinisekisa ukuthi i-iPhone yangonyaka ozayo, okuklanywe kwayo okwamanje, izoqhubeka nokufaka imodemu ye-Qualcomm 5G. Lokho bekungelona uhlelo obekucatshangwa yi-Apple, impela.
I-Apple ibizama iminyaka eminingi ukuthi inganciki kuphela futhi ngokukhethekileyo ku-Qualcomm kokuthile okubalulekile njengemodemu ye-5G. Futhi angikakutholi. Cishe eminyakeni emihlanu edlule, labo abavela eCupertino sebevele bezamile ukwenza eyabo chip ye-5G. Kodwa babenezinkinga ngokweqile, futhi abakwazanga ukuthola isisombululo kukho.
Isigaba se-Intel sika-5G
Ngakho-ke njengoba i-Apple ivamise ukwenza, yabheka inkampani yangaphandle eyayivele inobuchwepheshe obuthuthuke kakhulu, yabuthenga. Empeleni, bekuwukubheja okuphephile, ngoba ngo-2019 yathenga ingxenye ye-5G yokudluliswa kwedatha. Intel, ebiza izigidi ezingu-1.000 zamaRandi, ukuze ekugcineni ikwazi ukwenza imodemu yayo ye-5G.

[Isibuyekezo Senkampani] I-Qualcomm (QCOM.O)Inhlolovo yami yakamuva ikhombisa ukuthi ukuthuthukiswa kwe-chip yemodemu ye-iPhone 5G ye-Apple kungenzeka kuhlulekile, ngakho i-Qualcomm izohlala ingumhlinzeki okhethekile wama-chips angu-5G wama-iPhones amasha angu-2H23, nesabelo sokuhlinzeka esingu-100% (uma siqhathaniswa nesilinganiso sangaphambilini senkampani esingu-20%).

Kodwa ngokungaqondakali, labo 2.200 abasebenzi be-Intel okwaba ngabasebenzi bakwa-Apple, abakwazanga ukuklama nokwenza imodemu ye-5G ngendlela ethandwa umnikazi wayo omusha, eminyakeni emithathu kamuva. Ngokusho kukaKuo, i-iPhone 15 izoqhubeka nokufaka i-chip ye-Qualcomm 5G, njengoba eyakhe i-Apple ayikalungi. Okungakholeki.
Ngakho-ke okwamanje, naphezu kukaTim Cook neqembu lakhe, okulandelayo iPhone 14 futhi i iPhone 15 ngonyaka ozayo (njalo ngokwamazwi kaKuo) bazoqhubeka nokufaka i-modem chip ye-5G evela enkampanini yakwaQualcomm. Sizobona ukuthi labo abavela eCupertino bangakwazi yini ukukhulula imodemu yabo kumadivayisi we-Apple kusuka… 2024!
