Well the most important thing to Apple, or any company, is profit from sales. So Apple will just have to do whatever is going to keep up the sales and profit. whether its selling Samsung/LG/Sony/Whatever hardware with an Apple logo starting to design their own hardware, business is business. Which ever ends up bringing in the most profit is what they will do.

It's up to the consumer to realize whether they are getting the best deal for their money or being ripped off.

      agent 47, 24 Nov 2015one thing problem of Apply Iphone is they don't have their ... moreApple does have it's own chipset, the Ax series is an Apple designed SoC, Samsung simply manufacture the finished product, they have zero say in the design.

      Samsung are an established semiconductor manufacturer, Apple have never been, but we shouldn't confuse the processes of designing a SoC, with the process of actually fabricating one.

        Suing Samsung wherever they can but can't make a phone without parts made by Samsung. And the camera sensor is from SONY? So in a few years, the only thing on iPhones from Apple themselves will be the bitten Apple logo?

          Anonymous, 24 Nov 2015Haha in 2018 it's going to be a Samsung phone with an Apple... moreTrue. Apple will end up like Google. Iphone to Samsung will be like Nexus to other brand. Future iphone will be a Samsung with Apple logo branding at the back and that's it.

                Apple and Samsung will keep backing each other up and it'll leave Windows even more behind. #sad :(

                      Thats what we all want. Samsung disguised as Apple. Simply Perfect, Isn't it?To be bonest i disgrace Samsung for attempting this in the first place. Grasping a pinch of fame under the name Apple, simply pathetic from my point of view, but that's just me.
