Do you know that the processor that was inside the first iPhone was made by Samsung? But in today’s time, if you look at Samsung, then here, when the iphone14 was being launched, Samsung was running its teaser campaign ad where it was shown that the iPhone cannot do this. Samsung did this many times where they would poke and tease Apple where the idea of a notch came up where people were roaming around with a haircut. When Samsung brought the hole punch, the same Apple which was notch, the story is that 10 years before Samsung troubled Apple, Apple had filed a case against Samsung and Samsung had to pay 1 billion dollars at that time, so it seemed that both of them were enemies, but the thing is that both used to be very good friends, so the thing was that Apple’s special top processor was needed in it and Apple did not have that process so that their iPhone OS could run and that is why they got Samsung’s C processor made and they put the same thing in their first iPhone and after that, Apple’s iPhone started working but Samsung saw that Apple’s iPhone was the leader and we are making the processor for it, so why don’t we also launch our own phone here and if seen here, after a few years Samsung’s Galaxy series and Samsung’s Web series came here, Web had Android in Galaxy and the Android phone of those times had a look and feel that was quite similar to iPhone and when Steve Jobs came to know about this, he got very angry, he got so angry at that time. That this thing had already happened to him once upon a time.
The Fight Against Samsung’s Alleged Copycat Moves
When Macintosh was launched here, Windows came copying it and now the same thing happened here, they launched the iPhone and Android was created in its copy and Samsung himself is leading this thing here, who is their partner and because of this he added a lot of things here and said that Android should be discontinued here and Apple offered many things to Samsung, let me tell you a secret, at that time Apple said to Samsung that give us thirty dollars for every phone that you are selling and we want forty dollars for every tablet that you are selling because you took our design and copied our things and if you see, many types of court cases are going on at different places in the world, that is, different cases are going on in America, different cases are going on in Korea, different cases are going on in Australia, different cases are going on in the court of Japan, there were different types of cases in different countries.
Although some internal settlement happened in 2018 regarding some money, sometimes it had to be given to Apple and sometimes to Samsung, but if seen, things have been settled here, and if seen, both are doing their work well, but still, if seen, why should both of them talk to each other in this manner? If seen, before making mobile phones, electronic companies, and many things for Samsung, that builder, even the construction for Samsung, that builder, even the construction of the burj Khalifa, was done, but if talked about here, the electronic division of Samsung focuses on semi-conductors, so they make processors, but along with processors, they also make memory chips and other things.
How Apple and Samsung Depend on Each Other
And there is no need to tell that Samsung produces the best AMOLED screen in the world, and when Apple is developing the best phone in the world, it needs the best possible components and a partner who brings them the best possible things, and that is why Samsung helps Apple so much because Apple needs Samsung, and without Samsung, Apple can never make its own new iPhone because the majority component is Samsung, and that is why Apple’s dependency is with Samsung, but if we talk about the same thing, Samsung also has a dependency on Apple because Samsung does not make as much money from its Galaxy smartphone business as it sells itself. Samsung earns from its electronic division. Its means is that if it sells an iPhone, then Samsung provides its display and sells it to many companies, and there are many such internal components that Samsung is making so that it can make money, and this is the only thing. That means Apple and Samsung keep fighting with each other, but they should be with each other. That means Apple needs Samsung, and if we look at Samsung, then Apple is needed here. Both feel complete without each other. Well, this type of thing was going on between the two, and it was very good that both of them worked with each other here.
But there is still a slight animosity between the two, and what does Samsung know that the enemy’s enemy will be its friend? That is, Samsung has joined hands with all the enemies of Apple somewhere or the other. The first hand was shaken with Microsoft. Now everyone knows that Apple has a childhood animosity with Microsoft. But the thing here is that Microsoft has said that we want to bring our cloud gaming, which is xCloud, and we want to provide our Xbox game pass on Apple’s services; we want to bring it on Apple’s products. But Apple clearly refused that we do not allow this thing. And Samsung took the reins and said Microsoft people come with us, get cloud gaming done in our mobile phones, give us the subscription option of game pass, we are completely ready to make an eco system with Windows as well. If we look at all these things, Samsung joined hands with Microsoft, and in this way, Microsoft’s own Windows and Samsung’s Galaxy eco system got developed here.
If we talk like this, then once there was a rivalry between Epic Games and Apple, that is, Epic Games Fortnite had said that we should set up our own store here and do things in a proper way, Apple refused, and then later Samsung took advantage of this and made Samsung official partner of the game and started bringing new features of Fortnite and many new things. So yes, this is how the story is going on here, that is, the enemy of the enemy is made a friend here, Samsung, but along with this, Samsung prepares for the coming future. What does Apple think here? It knows that right now they are making mobile phones, but the next innovation will come in mobile phones, and for that also they will need different technologies, and if we look at it, Apple does not want to line up any small company in the world. If any new company comes in the future, if there is any quality issue in it, then that will be the problem, and the next problem here can also be that every new company that is coming, can it make so many products?
Samsung’s Role in Apple’s Future Tech
That is, selling millions of iPhones to Apple and producing so many components is something that not every company in the world can do. That is why they rely more on Samsung, and if you see, Samsung works a lot under this, and they know that if we develop the technology of the future, then somewhere in the future we will be able to sell it to Apple on a mass scale. 1 Example: In today’s time, the leader in foldables is Samsung, and if you see, Samsung’s foldables are very good, but if in the future Apple wants to launch a foldable and then for the display of the foldable, who will they have to go to, Samsung? If we talk like this, when 5G was coming here, Samsung launched its 5G phone in 2019 itself, and after 1 year, 5G came in Apple’s iPhone, then Samsung felt that they would use its technology.
But they use Qualcom processors. And if you see, such things should not happen in the future. That’s why Samsung is working on 6G today so that in the future, whatever innovations of this type come, they will keep bringing them into their phones and they will be able to bring them at a cheaper price. But if in the future Apple needs this type of innovation, then they will sell that too to Apple and make money from that. This type of news is going on that sometimes love and affection between the companies also turns into hatred. It means that both companies are rivals in a way and keep poking each other in the mobile phone industry.
