                      So, Apple is the brain.

                      If Samsung doesn't make the chip, Apple can use the design to give to another chip maker to follow instruction to make.

                              It's a cut down version of the OCTA with LESS performance. All the reviews were fake! Look at the 5s review in gsma it is squashed by the s800. I don;t trust the other sites cause they are all liers! Poor Crapple!

                                As much as Apple would like to drop Samsung out of spite they can't because Samsung fab is better than TSMC if they appreciate performance, battery life and stability.
