More profit, sure, but also less reliance on other companies. It's what Apple has always done.

Armani was presented with Chinese knock off Armani watches that were so good, he went to the factory and bought into it. His watches were no longer made in Europe and he enjoyed the increase in margins. I bet TC raises prices to celebrate the innovation

True. They will wear out physically eventually, but they should last much much longer than the Joycon.

I can see mine just fine with the windows open, on a bright summer day in the Desert.

They'll probably bump up the price a little

I think the most important ones for iPhones are the lightning port, wifi, and cellular. You can technically reset or manage an iPhone with those 3. I don’t really see how putting wifi, bluetooth, and cellular on one chip is that much of a risk.
Cellular is pretty useless already for updating or restoring backups. It is technically possible but not really that big a deal.

Are people using bluetooth to reset iPhones with broken wifi chips?

People should get this in their heads:
- Manufacture cost should always be as low as possible without dropping in quality.
- Sales price should always be set to whatever price will make the most money. Too high and people will buy something else. Too low and you’re missing out on profit.
Sales price is separate from manufacture cost.
As a consumer you have the choice to buy or not to buy. People complaining about the high price of iPhones just seem crazy to me. Nobody is forcing you to buy the latest iPhone. Smartphones are cheaper than ever and you can get phones that are good enough for <200.

To be fair, Broadcom and Qualcomm have pretty high licensing fees. It makes sense to want to cut them out.

So they can sell wifi capability to you instead of being an out of box feature 🤣🤮

I mean, your phone is already full of single points of failure. If almost any other chip dies it won’t even boot.

Looks a lot like CES Fluff with that much sunlight in the picture. If it were that good, they wouldnt have to photoshop the TV image into it.

>Will we see the savings as consumers is another question.
Narrator: “They won’t.”

The marketing picture doesn't make much sense. Stretching it to 150 inch and still a bunch of sunlight through the windows. Not going to happen.

R.I.P. to whomever has to code the Bluetooth portion of that chip. Lol

Ive been using my wavebird on my gc for over 10 years now, it probably has seen over 3000hrs now and still works perfectly. If its the same technology, 10/10 do recommend
