Apple Explores Using Intel and Samsung to Build Main Device Chips in the US, Bloomberg Reports

Tiger Newspress05-05

Apple has held exploratory discussions about using Intel and Samsung Electronics to produce the main processors for its devices, a move that would offer a secondary option beyond longtime partner TSMC, Bloomberg reported.

US-listed Intel shares gained more than 3% in overnight trading.

The iPhone and iPad maker has had early-stage talks with Intel about enlisting the company’s chipmaking services, according to people familiar with the deliberations. Meanwhile, Apple executives have made visits to a Samsung plant under development in Texas that will also make advanced chips.

Neither effort has resulted in any orders so far, and the work with both suppliers remains preliminary, according to the people, who asked not to be identified because the talks are private. Apple has concerns about using non-TSMC technology and may not ultimately move forward with another partner, the people added.
