t's no secret that
Apple and
Samsung are being very badly.
The first was that the second one will have to pay $ 1 billion dollars,
but the second seems not to care and instead launches videos like this mocking
iPhone fans to step
5 and propaganda makes the
Galaxy S3. And yet, despite the mutual contempt that have both companies, we will find the
technology of Samsung in the iPhone 5.
If you're somebody who really are interested in knowing the components
of your phone and not content simply to determine the frequency and
amount of processor cores, then you probably know that the A5 processor
found in the iPhone 4S was created by Samsung as well as the chip A5X
incorporating the new iPad / iPad 3. Things are clear: it is only good business, as would Lord Cutler Beckett. If not so, Samsung would not bother again be Apple supplier, and this time with A6 chips for the new iPhone 5.
If your eye had an appreciation of a microscope, what you see in the picture is what you'd find in the A6 processor. This is a measuring matrix bit long and 9mm wide.
If you are not an expert on processors, like I do, then do not worry,
because the interesting parts are marked in yellow, which clearly shows
the portion of the dual-core ARM and the three GPUs.
As you will notice at first glance, the design of the dual-core and GPU is quite different, when normally look a bit. This is because
the portion of the core has been worked by hand, which is extremely rare today, but this way Apple has achieved a great power for its new smartphone without draining the battery quickly.
Why design this by hand? It certainly takes longer and is a more expensive process, but it is clear that the benefit is to improve the performance.
Another possible theory is that Apple ran into problems when he was
developing the iPhone 5 and not to delay the departure date had to opt
for manual labor. In any case, this resulted in an estimated processor is twice as fast as its predecessor.
