Samsung providing Apple with A6 CPU

Samsung will provide Apple with quad-core A6 chips to power the next iPhone, The Korea Times reported on Monday. “Apple has been in talks with Samsung over shipment of its A6 quad-core mobile processor chips to be used in the next iPhone,” an anonymous parts supplier executive told The Korea Times. “It appears that Apple clearly has concluded that Samsung remains a critical business partner.” The two have been locked in legal battles around the globe, and both firms have accused the other of patent infringement. Samsung’s vice chairman and CEO Gee-Sung Choi said his company’s legal battles will be handled separately from its business partnership with the iPhone maker. Reportedly, the next iPhone may also be equipped with a 4-inch 960 x 640-pixel OLED display.

    seriously?  Its starts already BGR?  The iphone 4s has only been out a week.

    Given how uninspiring iPhone 4S came out nobody should surprised that BGR wants to switch to the next iPhone as soon as possible. And all this when we are just 24 hours away from the biggest smart phone announcement of the year – Samsung Prime. BGR is trying hard to take place of Macrumors and CultOfMac. Good luck with that. There are plenty of sites that do much better jobs covering relevant technologies.

    Keep dreaming BGR, keep dreaming. 

    Your “anonymous sources” are sh*t if they even exist. You’re just living in la-la land about Samsung making parts for Apple again because you want the quality they brought to the table.

    Still don’t see why Samsung is making chips for APPLE after they banned their phones in few of the countries when they can’t sell their OWN phones.
