Intel Inside… You must have seen this advertisement. If you use anything like a computer or laptop, then you would know that ‘Intel’ is one of the largest companies in the world manufacturing processing chips for computers. In the world of semiconductors, it competes directly with companies like Nvidia. Now the news is that this company is going to be sold and its buyer will be none other than iPhone maker Apple Inc.
In fact, after the success of Nvidia’s Graphic Processing Card (GPU), many news of Intel’s sale are floating in the stock market. One of these news is that Apple is very interested in buying Intel.
Claim on YouTube channel
According to a news from ET, on a YouTube channel named ‘Moore’s Law is Dead’, there has been talk of Intel being sold and Apple buying it. It has been claimed in this video that Samsung is also interested in buying Intel. It can either adopt the path of acquisition or merger with itself.
Chip manufacturing company Intel is facing many problems these days. The biggest challenge in this is the continuous decline in its profit margin. Besides, its problems have increased due to increase in demand for chips supporting Artificial Intelligence and tough competition from its manufacturers.
What is the truth of Apple-Intel Deal?
It is the year 2019, when Apple had purchased the modem division of Intel. Therefore, now that Intel is facing problems, discussions have intensified that Apple can buy Intel. Whereas in the video of the YouTube channel it is clearly stated that this could be just a rumour.
Earlier Apple’s MacBook laptops used to have Intel chips. In the year 2020, it started using its own silicon chip. Today, this silicon chip of Apple is used in everything from iPhone to iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, Air Pods, Air Tag, Home Pod and Apple Vision Pro.
On the other hand, the current market valuation of Intel has fallen below $100 billion. There has been talk of its sale or demolition for a long time.
