Nangona imigaqo yesivumelwano ingekenziwa esidlangalaleni, yonke into ibonakala ibonisa ukuba iApple kuyakufuneka inyanzelekile hlawula malunga ne-6.000 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukongeza ekunyanzelweni ukuba uhlawule phakathi kwe- $ 75 kunye ne- $ 80 ye-iPhone nganye iApple wayibeka kwintengiso, ngenxa yokusebenzisa amalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza. Kungekudala emva kokuba i-Intel ibhengeze ukuba iyarhoxa kukhuphiswano lokuyilwa kweemodem ze5G.
Ekuqaleni, i-CEO ye-Intel yathi Inzuzo yee-smartphones ibinciphile kule minyaka idlulileyo, kude kube kunenzuzo yokwenene ukwenza utyalomali olucwangcisiweyo luyimfuneko ukuze bakwazi ukuphuhlisa iimodem ze5G.
