Although there is no good blood between the two companies, Qualcomm and Apple, to the point of ending up in court for a legal battle that has seen them protagonists about the design license policy for their chipsets and therefore patent violations, the recent Apple's launch of the new M1 chip did not stop Qualcomm's president from commenting on this event.
On the other hand, Apple's payment to Qualcomm of about 4,5 billion dollars precisely for the above, has put an end to the thorny issues between the two companies.
Qualcomm's president commends Apple for the performance of the new M1 chipset
Recall that the Apple M1 comes to replace the Intel platform on Mac computers, whose 5-nanometer production process made by TSMC, allows to integrate 16 billion transients, which makes it more energy efficient and the proof of this, are the various reviews on the net that tell an autonomy of the new Apple laptops equipped with the M1 chip, which also extends to 20 hours.
But returning to what was commented by Cristiano Amon, president of Qualcomm, in the podcast of The Verge, the executive admitted that there will be a lot to learn from the new Apple M1 processor, both in terms of energy efficiency and in terms of performance and does not hide that there will be a great inspiration in the future, to bring a truly multimedia experience to the highest levels.
In short, starting from next year we should expect juicy news also in the laptop / PC field, hoping that even the costs are up to expectations.
