Zonke izinkampani zobuchwepheshe zixwayile ngokushoda kwe-chip okwenzekayo. Sekunesikhathi bebona ukuthi ukunikezwa kwalezi zingxenye eziyisisekelo kungafiki ngobuningi nobuningi okufanele bakufinyelele. Kepha manje i-alamu iphakanyiswa futhi ngokwanda kwalokhu kushoda. Kubukeka sengathi izinqolobane zezinkampani seziqala ukuphela futhi lokho kuzosho ukungakwazi ukukhiqiza amadivayisi amaningi afana nama-Mac futhi ngenxa yalokho amamodeli ambalwa emakethe futhi mhlawumbe kungasho ukwanda kwentengo.
Umhlaba uhlushwa ukuswelakala kokuphakelwa kwama-semiconductor. Nge izinkinga zokukhiqiza i-chip kuthinta amaketanga okuhlinzeka izinkampani eziningi. Inkinga yomhlaba, eye yaba yimbi kakhulu kulandela ukusha komlilo esakhiweni se-Renesas ngoMashi, selule wonke amandla asele okukhiqiza futhi kuthinta izimboni eziningi ezahlukahlukene. Kusuka kubakhiqizi bezimoto kuya kulabo abazinikele ekugcwaliseni imakethe ngama-smartphones noma amakhompyutha afana ne-Apple noma i-Samsung.
Ngokusho komhlaziyi uMatt Bryson, ngenxa "yokutholakala ngokuqinile kwe-chip" kanye nokuntuleka "kwamandla okuvuthwa okwandayo" ekukhiqizeni, ngokusweleka "okusondela emazingeni angenangqondo", inkinga iba yinkinga enkulu. Kubathengisi abaningi be-smartphone kanye namadivayisi. UXiaomi uvumile ukuthi unenkinga ngenombolo yama-chips azowasebenzisa. Lokhu kusho ukuthi isivele idonsa izinqolobane futhi ziyaphela. Ngokusobala, ngezinga elifanayo, ezinye izimboni zihamba ngenqubo efanayo.
Ngesinye isikhathi, ukutholakala kwengxenye elinganiselwe kungaphoqa i-Apple nabanye ukuthi benze ukulungiswa kwentengo yesikhashana. Lokhu ingathinta kakhulu izikhwama zabathengi. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi kungasiza inkampani, kepha kithina esiphila usuku nosuku, isikhathi esifushane yilokho okubalulekile.
