Well known is the almost atavistic rivalry between the Korean Samsung and the North American Apple. The battle is not only fought in the trenches of the shelves where the mobiles of one and the other are sold, but it also extends to the courts, where cross complaints are crossed and accumulated due to the alleged unauthorized use of patents. However, despite everything, there are more reasons that unite them than those that separate them. And it should not be forgotten that Samsung is the main supplier of Apple components, and that the contracts that bind these companies amount to billions of dollars.
The processor that carry the iPad and iPhone, for example, is based on technology from Samsung. And with the iPhone 5 the situation has no signs of changing. So much so, that from the specialized Digitimes media they assure that those from Cupertino have not doubted it, and will integrate a new generation of their processors that will materialize in the expected A6, which will be, in terms of foundation, a Samsung Exynos 4 Quad duly adapted to the requirements of the telephone that, in theory, we could meet next October, if the forecasts made by the main rumors in the sector are fulfilled.
Currently, the iPhone 4S carries a dual-core A5 with a speed somewhat less than one GHz. It was raised that perhaps the iPhone 5 would relapse into dual-core technology after incorporating an optimized edition of the A5x that we have known in the new iPad. However, based on the data handled by Digitimes colleagues, it seems that Apple would have decided to respond to Samsung's ordeal and bet on their own quad-core device, although for this they have to pay the technological toll of the multinational based in Seoul.
It would not be the only provocation launched by Samsung to the Californian company. A few days ago we told you that the Asian firm would have decided to present the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as a measure of pressure against the possible iPhone 5, which is already submitting to the responsibility of responding to the spectacular sales of the Samsung Galaxy S3 "" a mobile that Despite its price, it registered a volume of reserves of ten million units and that during this same month of July it is expected to reach that level of sales, according to forecasts by the South Korean company itself ””.
In order to participate in the competition, Apple could throw all the meat on the grill by entering with a whole arsenal of novelties that mitigates the fiasco that some users took before the few novelties presented last year with the iPhone 4S "" a relative fiasco, everything be said, since the last model in force until now is the one that has presented the best sales in the five years of life of this generation of telephones ””.
For example, the iPhone 5 would come to expand the size of its screen, 3.5 inches so far, reaching the much desired four inches, which, by the way, would not ruin the so-called Retina resolution: the next Mangophone would also expand his canvas to 1,336 x 640 pixels.
