Samsung no longer a chip supplier for Apple iPhones A6 chips - Polidicks

I hope samsung come out of this ok. I have a galaxy tab and I've used a samsung phone for years. It's good stuff and I wouldn't want them to go under, especially because of apple. I hope that apple end up having to pay more, but that's unlikely I guess.

Sales to Apple constitute about 2.6% of total sales for samsung. It's not great, but it doesn't really hurt.

ha ha ha making fun of helpless people how genius and funny

Meanwhile Apple gets shafted by the complexity of having to use different manufacturers. [editline]29th August 2011[/editline] Process technology is a huge deal for performance, and if you can't build your SoCs around it then life will be bad. This is why Intel shat all over AMD after the Athlon 64 era.

[QUOTE=adam1172;32004776]Samsung just lost money because of the lawsuit and now they lost more money because they stopped selling the hardware to apple. This is bad.[/QUOTE] Yeah but they have so much, that's nothing. Consumer electronics which everyone knows them for only accounts for less than 10% of their profits. They're more industrial than anything.

I would suck Samsung's dick, because they're a cool company

[QUOTE=smurfy;32009213]I would suck Samsung's dick, because they're a cool company[/QUOTE] You would give head to 276,000 employees. Eek.

[QUOTE=Contag;32009357]You would give head to 276,000 employees. Eek.[/QUOTE]That's a lot of cum.

Karma's a bitch.

why is everyone going "lol karma" and "good on samsung" for this, it's obvious Apple was the one that cut the ties.

Well, what did you expect when you try to sue your supplier out of the market for competing with you?

[QUOTE=thisispain;32010912]not really[/QUOTE]Yes, they do. If you disagree, please elaborate.

[QUOTE=faze;32010949]Yes, they do. If you disagree, please elaborate.[/QUOTE] they sued most of those people because of trademark/copyright/patent infringement not because of innovation. companies emulating or copying an extremely successful product isn't anything new

[QUOTE=thisispain;32010971]they sued most of those people because of trademark/copyright/patent infringement not because of innovation. companies emulating or copying an extremely successful product isn't anything new[/QUOTE]They're finding ways around these laws to take out competition. They do this every time they lose market share. They are also blatantly lying while doing it. This has been widely covered. Apple is being a total douche with their lawsuits.

Apple just wants to be like Tai Yong Medical from Dues Ex.

[QUOTE=thisispain;32011092]well they aren't really losing market share.[/QUOTE]Um...yes they are. Last week, Android had 62% of the market.

[QUOTE=faze;32010831]Apple is being a dick by suing anyone with innovation.[/QUOTE] I'm quite curious what you think is so innovative about Android. Please elaborate.

[QUOTE=thisispain;32010971]they sued most of those people because of trademark/copyright/patent infringement not because of innovation. companies emulating or copying an extremely successful product isn't anything new[/QUOTE] Wait, you agree with their extremely broad patents?

[QUOTE=faze;32011126]Um...yes they are. Last week, Android had 62% of the market.[/QUOTE] they never had that many sold to defeat android which is sold on many more phones. the lawsuits have done absolutely nothing to diminish android as a platform and that wasn't the intention.

[QUOTE=thisispain;32011092]well they aren't really losing market share.[/QUOTE] Who are you, and what have you done with the reasonable poster known as thisispain?

[QUOTE=Contag;32011243]Wait, you agree with their extremely broad patents?[/QUOTE] no but i don't think apple was suing people because they hate innovation or whatever it was a petty squabble over market technology
