Samsung has big plans for the iPhone

Samsung has very big plans for iPhone in the coming years, the Koreans wanting to produce processors for every Apple smartphone sold worldwide. Samsung wants to triple its market share in terms of smartphone chip production, and this includes a substantial increase in orders to produce future iPhone and iPad processors in the coming years.

Samsung earned the most money in Q2 2017 from the division that produces chips for mobile terminals, and starting from here the company wants to make even more money. Samsung wants the number of clients of the division that produces chips to grow exponentially in the next 5 years, increasing at the same time the orders the company receives from those who have already been its clients for some time.

Samsung's main rival in this market is the TSMC company, which produces the vast majority of processors in the last two iPhone models, with the iPhone 7 having exclusivity. Samsung wants to regain orders from Apple, perhaps even exclusively, so it is also making massive investments to prepare its factories for a substantial increase in chip production.

Samsung is not sure if in the first 5 years it will succeed in surpassing TSMC in terms of the production of chips for smartphones, tablets and other electronic products, but it hopes for it. by obtaining larger orders from Apple, Samsung can secure more billions of dollars for the division that produces chips, but it remains to be seen if it will be able to convince those in Cupertino to trust it again.

"Samsung plans to triple the market share of its contract chip manufacturing business within the next five years by aggressively adding clients, a senior company executive said, as it targets new growth drivers for the chips business. Analysts estimate Samsung lost Apple to TSMC in 2015 and the Taiwan firm has had 100 percent of Apple's mobile processor business in 2016 and 2017."

  1. That's why Samsung doesn't use its own processors on most of the phones it sells (in number of models)? Yes Snapdragon, yes Broadcom, Vivante, Spreadtrum and who knows what other wonders :))

  2. Well, it seems that Samsung was only the 'worker' who produced according to the sketches of the Apple 'architect', right?

    If the processor 'Manufactured by Samsung in Korea' but 'Designed by Apple in California' performed poorly, it is only Apple's fault, because Apple gave the processor plans.
    If Samsung had any fault, it's a no-brainer that Apple would have caused a scandal in court. Careful! It's on the rooster's mind!!!

  3. Yes, Samsung produced exactly what Apple told them for the money, only that it offered the others something better out of respect

  4. Apple gave bad sketches to Samsung. A processor is not made on a lathe, so that you can make small adjustments here and there.
    Please... I'm explaining it to you in vain! Read above how it is with the rooster!

  5. You don't understand, it's ok. It was seen that tsmc made a surprise, apple rewarded it by making it the only partner for one year
    It's on the rooster's mind

  6. TSMC is desperate to get a contract to survive. Samsung is also a superpower. With or without the Apple contract, Samsung is up there at the top.
    Samsung has claims, and only produces for Apple from a minimum price upwards. TSMC does everything, and for Apple every penny that it doesn't pay matters. It's on the rooster's mind.

    You don't understand that processors are not made on a lathe... It's in the rooster's mind!

  7. When it comes to something negative, it's 100% Samsung's fault.
    On the other hand, when the processor has good performance, is it 100% Apple's credit?

  8. Off, there is still talk of apple's bankruptcy?? Seriously?? For 5 years I keep hearing "apple is doomed"
    Now it's your turn

  9. don't beg... the others offer Apple offers... no Apple invests like Samsung does, billions for OLED, etc
    wtf are you saying that you are thinking of a monkey..

  10. God, instead of writing 10000 lines, you could say Apple is God
    Nokia lost a lot because they continued with Symbian for 3 years when there was already android... how can you say it wasn't their fault?!?!?!
    I mean wtf...after that they messed with Microsoft etc...this happens when you don't have a solid plan for the future
    Don't forget, Apple announced that it will make batteries for the automotive industry... and if you combine this with the laws given in the UK and France, such as that all cars from 2040 will be electric... look how Apple thinks... 20 years ahead... so leave me alone with your petty thinking...it's normal that you're an ordinary person when you think like that.

  11. speak for yourself, because it seems you don't really know how things work in the big world
    you know work at home work at home daily the same routine..

  12. seriously, you are drawing me, but please with official facts!
    Not with the bazaconi and what do you think...
    It doesn't matter to be the first, that's how Tesla was before... the idea is that companies like Mercedes BMW Audi will not use Samsung batteries but Tesla or Apple
    Samsung is for the poor, so they will make for the masses, vw, renualt, mazda, honda and probably dacia

  13. yes, it doesn't matter, that's how the A10 cpu is assembled by TSMC...
    in other news..
    it seems that 3d recon, you will surpass touchid as security, they will make the system scan your face as in mail, with 3-4 push options, that is to say that it will scan that you are the one using the phone from second to second, every 30 sec, at 5 minutes or 10

  14. So you want to say that Apple gave Samsung a sketch and TSMC a completely different one to manufacture the A9s??
    Doh, attention! It's on the rooster's mind!!!

  15. Yes, it is very possible, because Samsung and TSMC have different manufacturing processes.
    As I wrote, if Samsung had any fault Apple would have sued it immediately. Samsung did an exemplary job!
