Johny Srouji, Senior Vice President of Hardware Technologies at Apple, is allegedly one of the semiconductor experts on Intel's list of potential candidates for the CEO job.
Qualcomm has secured another victory in its legal spat with Apple, this time in Germany after a Munich court ruled that some iPhone models that employ Intel-made cellular modems violate a Qualcomm patent which covers so-called envelope tracking, a feature that helps smartphones save battery power while sending and receiving wireless signals.
Just like it previously opted to wait a year or two until 3G and 4G LTE cellular radio technologies matured before adopting them in its iconic smartphone, Apple this time around is expected to do the same by not releasing a 5G-capable iPhone until 2020 at the earliest.

Apple on Tuesday announced an entirely redesigned Mac Mini encompassing several hardware improvements that consumers have been begging for.
Starting with an entirely redesigned enclosure built from recycled aluminum and recycled plastic, the Mac Mini is up to 50% more environmentally friendly than its predecessor.
We've been hearing rumblings about Apple's internal project to ditch Intel processors for its own in-house designed chips since that 2012 Bloomberg report, and now a revered analyst has predicted that ARM-based Macs would be coming in 2020 or 2021.
If you own an Apple computer, especially a modern one, then you’ve probably come to notice how particularly thin these machines have become. Despite that, most Macs still sport internal cooling fans to keep the CPU and GPU temperatures in check.
By default, Apple’s internal cooling fans run as silently as possible for a quiet user experience, but this isn’t without its caveats. Thinner machines like the MacBook Pro are more susceptible to heat soak because the cooling capabilities of such a compact chassis are limited; this is something you’ve undoubtedly felt while the machine sits on your lap during intensive tasks.
The upcoming 2018 iPhone lineup might only use Intel-based modems. This news comes from Qualcomm's financial chief who confirmed that his company's modems wouldn't be included in this year's lineup. If correct, this would represent a significant change on Apple's part.Â
A new week hasn't ended the so-called "thermal throttling" controversy that's been swirling around the newly released 15-inch 2018 MacBook Pro. ExtremeTech is now reporting that Intel had long ago said it was okay for manufacturers such as Apple to deviate from stated specifications. In doing so, it makes you wonder whether you can even count on reported clock speeds for some of the most expensive laptops on the market.Â
Qualcomm on Monday is celebrating recently announced Ookla download speed tests that pit its Snapdragon 845 against the Intel XMM 7480. The former is found on high-end Android phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S9, while the latter is on the Apple iPhone X, among others devices.
Even though Apple's refreshed MacBook Pro models for 2018 feature an iFixit-identified JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 controller from Intel, unveiled in January as part of the Titan Ridge platform, the notebooks don't truly support the DisplayPort 1.4 specification.
