Why Samsung and Apple Need Each Other

in #technology8 years ago (edited)

I just gotta let everybody know that both tech giants Samsung and Apple need to mutually help one another in order to coexist. As some of you may know, Samsung provides Apple one of the most costly parts of the iPhone--the memory chips and OLED displays--which account for about 1/4 the price of the smartphone itself. Samsung's reputation as a reliable supplier of and a key dominant player in the market for such components to Apple need to be highlighted. Without its chips, the iPhone won't be what it is today.

However, it should also be noted that the iPhone, being a highly profitable product, is somewhat a cash cow for Samsung, since its factories' revenue partly rely on the number of iPhones that are sold yearly. Hence, Samsung and Apple will have to coexist, unless the latter finds another supplier or the former cuts ties with it, which somehow already happened to a certain extent in the past when Samsung stopped supplying Apple some other parts because of a patent infringement lawsuit.

You see, even enemies can become great partners. So, I guess the takeaway note here is, love your enemies. Who knows, they'll be of great use to you. And always watch your guard. :)

Good to know. But could Samsung give up trying to compete with Siri and kill the Bixby button already?
