Qualcomm's x55, although not stated at the press conference, is X55 according to the information exposed by netizens.
Although Qualcomm and Apple are both American companies, Apple has always hated Qualcomm's high patent fees, and has been fighting a lawsuit with Qualcomm for many years, which led to a bad relationship between the two sides. Although Apple has the design ability of CPU, it doesn't have the design ability of baseband chip that includes all communication functions of mobile phones, and Qualcomm is the first baseband chip manufacturer in the world. Previously, Apple preferred to use Intel's baseband chip on the iphone, rather than Qualcomm's baseband chip, which led to mobile phone signal problems being criticized by users.
/kloc-In April, 2009, Apple and Qualcomm reached a settlement on the patent dispute, and Apple agreed to pay the related expenses to Qualcomm in one lump sum. The two parties have reached a patent licensing agreement and chip supply agreement for many years, so Apple can use Apple's 5G baseband chip (CPU or its own product A 14 bionic chip) in iphone 12.
According to the documents disclosed by the United States International Trade Commission, Apple will purchase 5G baseband chips from Qualcomm for four consecutive years, from June 2020 1 to May 3 1, from June 2026 1 to May 3 1, and will purchase X60.
