Samsung Makes Iphone Parts by Muhammad2468(m): 10:41am On May 19, 2020 |
Apple neither makes nor assembles the iPhone you use for your daily business needs. An iPhone has parts that come from several manufacturers, one of which is Samsung, a maker of integrated circuits as well as computer parts, televisions and other consumer electronics -- and a competitor in the smartphone market. Samsung has the chip factories necessary to make the custom circuits used in the iPhone; in addition, it can produce the large quantities of the parts Apple requires. A4 Chip The iPhone's central processing unit is a specialty "system-on-a-chip" that combines a microprocessor and a graphics processor in a single package. The Apple-designed A4, found in the iPhone 4, incorporates an ARM Cortex-A8 microprocessor and a PowerVR SGX 535 GPU. Samsung manufactures this chip along with the A5 and A6 CPUs used in newer iPhone models. Flash Memory A teardown of the iPhone 4 found Samsung flash memory; this is the same type of memory used in USB sticks and other portable devices. Flash is non-volatile, meaning it retains its data even when the power is turned off. The amount of flash memory used in an iPhone depends on the model; the 4S, for example has 16, 32 or 64 GB. The iPhone stores its apps, music, video and other data in flash memory. RAM Samsung also manufactures some of the random-access memory used in the iPhone 4S. An iFixit teardown of this model revealed Samsung RAM in one unit and Elpida memory in another; RAM is much more of a commodity than processors such as the A4, so it appears that Apple has multiple suppliers. The 4S has 512MB of RAM, which the iPhone uses to store temporary app data such as for intermediate results of calculations and video processing. RAM is volatile, so when you turn off the iPhone's power off, data stored in this memory becomes lost. The iPhone performs a system shutdown when you press the "Power" button, saving any needed information into flash OLED display Apple will finally adopt OLED panels next year to have an iPhone with a curved screen (most likely for the 10th anniversary version), and Samsung will be the sole supplier, Bloomberg reported last month. Not that Apple had much of a choice. The Korean tech giant dominates the market. OLED screen: Samsung makes and supplies perhaps the most visible feature on the iPhone X screen. The iPhone X iphone XR and iphone XS MAX features an OLED display , known for having greater contrast and saturation than other screen technologies. “Currently in flexible OLED market, Samsung is the only company to mass produce and to stand in No. 1 position in both OLED smartphone and OLED panel markets,” according to Jeff Kim and Kevin Kim
