It flopped because the British chip designer Arm Holdings licensed more power-efficient designs to chipmakers like Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Apple.Intel (which divested its own Arm-based chip unit in 2006 and actually rejected Apple's offer to produce the CPUs for the first iPhone) thought it could conquer the mobile market with more power-efficient versions of its x86 CPUs. But it was dead wrong, and Arm-based chips now power over 95% of the world's smartphones.Image source: Getty Images.Arm recently went public again after spending the past seven years as a subsidiary of the Japanese conglomerate SoftBank.
