Intel processor rejected manufacture the first iPhone - 20minutos.es

rejected manufacture Intel processors for the first iPhone from Apple. This was revealed Paul Otellini, CEO of Intel since 2005, in an interview with The Atlantic .

This occurred when Apple was developing the phone, a time when it was unclear what he meant to the company Steve Jobs or host could have among consumers.

Apple wanted a mainframe Silverthorne to give life to the ‘smartphone’. This technology, which later became the Intel Atom was hardly developed, and small-scale production was too expensive for a newly launched iPhone.

So iPhone hit the market with an ARM processor, and the reception was much better than I thought Intel, more than enough to profitably .

Currently, ARM is a world in mobile processors, while Atom has a fairly small percentage.
