U-Vratislav Holub U-Apple ubesebenza ekuthuthukiseni imodemu yayo ye-5G yama-iPhones ayo isikhathi eside. Ngenxa yalokhu, uzokwazi ukuvikela inkululeko ku-Californian Qualcomm, okumanje engumphakeli okhethekile wamamodeli e-5G wama-iPhone amasha. Kodwa njengoba kwenzeka kancane kancane, lokhu kuthuthukiswa akuhambi njengoba umdondoshiya weCupertino wawucabanga kuqala.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Ngo-2019, inkampani ye-Apple yathola isigaba semodemu ye-Intel, ngaleyo ndlela ithola hhayi izinsiza ezidingekayo kuphela, kodwa ngaphezu kwawo wonke amalungelo obunikazi, ukwazi kanye nabasebenzi ababalulekile. Kodwa-ke, iminyaka iyahamba futhi ukufika kwemodemu yakho ye-5G cishe akusondeli. Ukwenza izinto zibe zimbi nakakhulu, i-Apple izibekele omunye umgomo ofanayo - ukuthuthukisa i-chip yayo enganikezeli nje uxhumano lweselula, kodwa futhi i-Wi-Fi ne-Bluetooth. Futhi kungalesi sici lapho aheha khona ukunaka kwabalandeli.
U-Apple ubhekene nomsebenzi onzima
Njengoba sishilo ngenhla, ukuthuthukiswa kwemodemu yethu ye-5G sekuneminyaka embalwa kwenzeka. Nakuba, vele, akekho ngaphandle kuka-Apple ongabona enqubweni yentuthuko, ngokuvamile kuthiwa umdondoshiya awuyena ojabule kakhulu, ngokuphambene nalokho. Ngokusobala, ibhekene nenani lezinkinga ezingezinhle neze ezibambezela ukufika okungaba khona kwengxenye yayo futhi ngenxa yalokho ukuzimela ku-Qualcomm. Kodwa-ke, ngokusho kwezindaba zakamuva, inkampani yama-apula ihlela ukuyihambisa kancane. Njengoba sesishilo, ukuthuthukiswa kwe-chip yokuqinisekisa ukuxhumana kweselula, i-Wi-Fi ne-Bluetooth kusengozini.
I-iPhone 14 (Plus)
Kuze kube manje, ukuxhumana kwe-Wi-Fi ne-Bluetooth kwezingcingo ze-Apple kunikezwe ama-chips akhethekile avela ku-Broadcom. Kodwa lokho kuzimela kubalulekile ku-Apple, ngenxa yokuthi akudingeki ukuba ithembele kwabanye abahlinzeki, futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo ingonga imali ngokuhamba kwesikhathi ngesisombululo sayo. Ngemuva kwakho konke, lesi futhi isizathu esenza inkampani iqale ukuguqukela kweyayo i-Apple Silicon chipsets ye-Macs, noma kungani ithuthukisa imodemu yayo ye-5G yama-iPhones. Kepha kusuka encazelweni kulandela ukuthi i-Apple ingeza ne-chip eyodwa enakekela ukuxhumana okuphelele ngokuzimela. Ingxenye eyodwa inganikeza kokubili i-5G ne-Wi-Fi noma i-Bluetooth.
Lokhu kuvula ingxoxo ethokozisayo phakathi kwabathandi bama-apula mayelana nokuthi umdondoshiya weCupertino walunywa yini ngephutha. Uma sicabangela zonke izinkinga edlula kuzo mayelana nemodemu yayo ye-5G, khona-ke kukhona ukukhathazeka okunengqondo ukuthi isimo ngeke sibe sibi nakakhulu ngokwengeza imisebenzi eyengeziwe. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iqiniso liwukuthi akudingeki kube i-chip eyodwa. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-Apple iyakwazi ukuqhamuka nesixazululo se-Wi-Fi ne-Bluetooth ngaphambi kwe-5G, ebesingaqinisekisa ukuthi okungenani izimele kwi-Broadcom. Kuyaziwa ukuthi ngokwezobuchwepheshe nangokomthetho, inkinga eyisisekelo ilele ku-5G. Nokho-ke ukuthi kuzohamba kanjani kowamanqamu akukacaci.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
