I-Apple izothengisa ama-iPhones ashintshiwe eJalimane, isizathu yicala lasenkantolo neQualcomm

Namuhla, i-Apple iqinisekise ngokusemthethweni izindaba zasekuqaleni kwalo nyaka zokuthi ihlela ukuqala ukuthengisa izinguqulo eziguquliwe zamanye Amafoni eJalimane. Lesi isilinganiso esivele ngenxa yezingxabano ezingokomthetho ne-Qualcomm. Kulo mongo, i-Apple ithe ayikho enye inketho endabeni yaseJalimane kunokushintsha ama-chips avela ku-Intel ngezingxenye ezivela ku-workshop ye-Qualcomm kumamodeli afanelekile, ukuze lawa madivayisi akwazi ukuqhubeka nokudayiswa eJalimane. I-Qualcomm iwine icala elifanele ngoDisemba odlule.

Umkhulumeli we-Apple ubize i-Qualcomm's i-blackmail futhi wayisola "ngokusebenzisa kabi amalungelo obunikazi ukuhlukumeza i-Apple." Ukuze uthengise i-iPhone 7, 7 Plus, 8 kanye ne-8 Plus eJalimane, umdondoshiya we-Cupertino uphoqeleka ukuthi ashintshe ama-Intel chips ngama-Qualcomm processors, ngokusho kwamagama aso. Ukuthengiswa kwalawa mamodeli anama-Intel chips ngaphambilini bekunqatshelwe ngokomyalelo wenkantolo eJalimane.

I-Qualcomm, ehlinzeka ngama-chips e-Apple, isole inkampani ngokuphula umthetho we-Hardware patent ehlobene nesici esisize ukonga ibhethri lefoni ngenkathi ithumela futhi yamukela isignali engenantambo. U-Apple uzamile ukuvikela lezi zinsolo kodwa wahluleka ngokusola iQualcomm ngokuvimbela ukuncintisana. Ngisho nangaphambi kokuba isinqumo siqale ukusebenza ngoDisemba odlule, ukuthengiswa kwe-iPhone 7, 7 Plus, 8 kanye ne-8 Plus kwavalwa ezitolo eziyi-15 eJalimane.

Kwenzeke umyalo ofanayo eChina njengengxenye yecala neQualcomm, kodwa i-Apple yakwazi ukweqa ukuvinjelwa kokuthengisa ngosizo lwesibuyekezo sesoftware, futhi amamodeli abekwe icala asengathengiswa lapho.
