After Sipgate: 7 iPhone without Samsung processor?

When iPhone 7 Apple could use only processors from TSMC and Samsung issue a denial. Walks away from an analyst - because in recent days cooked the discussion about the so-called chip gate high.

Just recently, the iPhone 6s appeared than is already up speculation about the iPhone. 7 An analyst from JP Morgean is already assuming that Apple wants to renounce the help of Samsung at its next smartphone. The reported CultofMac, referring to an article of the Chinese news portal UDN.

When iPhone 6s part of the A9 processors from Samsung is made, while others come from the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). The reason for such a policy change towards only a contract manufacturer would find itself in the assertion that the processors are different efficient. Brand new rumor of a waiver of Samsung processors is not: In September it was said that Apple no longer wanted to work with Samsung at the upcoming A10.

Are Samsung processors worse when iPhone 6s?
In recent days, chip gate was discussed under the designation, whether the processors by Samsung to be inferior to those of TSMC. The occasion was a benchmark test with Geekbench 3, hence an iPhone 6s have a longer battery life with a TSMC processor. Further tests could not confirm this allegation, however, such as an examination of the battery life has shown by Ars Technica. Even Apple has answered in the discussion to speak and stated that it has no impact on the battery life, which was made by a contract manufacturer of processor.

How many contract manufacturers, there will be the iPhone 7?
Whatever the reasons, and the ratio of Apple to Samsung, such a change in policy is questionable. In the production of devices Apple relies on various companies in order not to place undue be dependent on one manufacturer and to a shortage of supply to counteract. The best example of this is that the iPhone 6s produced both Foxconn and Pegatron of. Accordingly, it would be close to that if Apple would opt against Samsung, to replace the Korean rivals another company would come.
