In 2015, Apple will once again be buying processors from Samsung?
Apple and Samsung in recent years, are fighting not only for market dominance, but also very active in trying to find out in court, which patents have been used illegally. In this case, a significant share of Apple accessories continues to buy the Korean counterparts. However, certain steps to reduce this dependence, Americans are taking. In particular the production of processors for the new models was postponed to the power of TSMC. This was done at the time of the transition to 20-nanometer chipsets Apple A8. In this case, the Taiwanese company is still in the process of testing the 20-nanometer chips and it is possible that in reality the transition to 20 nm process will not take place. However, the disposal of the publication The Korea Economic Daily published information according to which future Apple A9 processors will once again make Samsung. This will come with the transition to apprat, which will be a key to Apple in 2015. The reason for such a decision may be the fact that in 2015, Samsung is preparing to produce chipsets for 14-nm process technology. A similar proposal by TSMC not, therefore, not to be outdone in the technical development of their smartphones, Apple may choose Samsung, despite the fact that its Galaxy S series phones are direct competitors of iPhone.
