Last week, a secret plan of the Apple company was announced for a increases the autonomy of the iPhone and iPad battery with up to a few hours by simply changing an internal component. We are talking about a face that controls the way in which the energy iPhone and the iPad is used by the internal components of the iDevices, those from Apple wanting to develop their own chip of this kind since last year.
Dialog Semiconductor is the company from which Apple now buys this component, but starting with the coming years those from Cupertino want to give up the partnership completely to manufacture the component themselves. Those from Dialogi confirmed today the plans of those from Apple, avoiding to say that this will happen from 2018 itself, but that is normal, because the price of their shares was massively influenced on the stock market.
iPhone – Apple's Plan to Increase iPhone Battery Life is Officially Confirmed
Dialog says that for 2018 it already has firm contracts from Apple to sell them chips dedicated to iPhone and iPad, and now it is also negotiating contracts for 2019. Dialog has not confirmed that Apple will give up its services in the next 2 years and she won't do it too soon, but she is convinced that there is a risk that the Americans will completely give up their services in the coming years.
"Our position remains that we have seen no material change to our ongoing relationship with Apple Inc," Chief Executive Jalal Bagherli told investors on a conference call. Apple has the resources and capability to internally design a PMIC [power-management integrated circuits] and could potentially do so in the next few years.”
Apple will certainly implement this plan because it needs a substantial increase in iPhone and iPad battery life beyond the existing product limits. We don't know how long it will take until this happens, but when it happens, we can expect extremely good things from Apple, and the fans will be the most excited about this very important change.
