          missleading depend on chipset exynos 9610 gpu is more powerfull than snapdragon 675 gpu etc

            so, why is Apple's CPUs and GPUs so powerful

              My next phone should have this CPU and GPU

                  Power vr GPUs were considerably more powerful than adreno back in the day.. hopefully Mali can catch up and give adreno a run for its money, Mali right now is a joke

                        realitychecker, 27 May 2019yeah same amount of everything. but it makes me wonder, thi... moreThe link you provided shows that it's very much on a case-by-case basis. Depends on your negotiating skills, your volume (usually the more you sell, the cheaper) and the license chosen.

                        You mentioned Samsung. I'm sure they have the Architecture license due to their custom Mongoose cores, which is ARM's most expensive license.

                        The loss is a licensee will make ARM lose the subscription's money. Unless Huawei got Perpetual licenses. In that case they'll lose some A77 revenue, but how much exactly is not simple to know.

                        We are far from "weak sales" however. Very far. There's no need to worry for ARM, they have a lot of customers.

                          AnonD-558092, 27 May 2019Hmmm... No. Huawei customers did not vanish. There's the sa... moreyeah same amount of everything. but it makes me wonder, this is a one time license investment from a licensee right? i dont really know. so would the surge of demand from other brands like samsung and others have an increment on the original license contract price? if it wont and the price is not on a per device basis, then probably arm will lose some revenue if stops doing business with a customer. but please correct me if im wrong.


                          edit : there's royalties too lol.

                                  Whatever they may do, they can't match Apple a13 lightning. Going to blow away the competion. Already the GPU is 40 percent faster than competition(a12).
                                  A13 is going to kill it. Smart hdr will be the first tech to get advantage from that even works at 4k 60fps. Expect 4k at 120 fps
