“Qualcomm bullied Samsung” you got to be kidding. Samsung has internal Modem team working hard to replace QC chipsets, but never successful wrt performance, it was pathetic. So Samsung took approach of using QC chipset in premium market segments and dumped their own modem chipsets in countries like India, Korea.
- StudentStuff 8y agoThat is the narrative we have been fed, but when a company purposefully purloins the highest volume, highest profit market and force all phones sold there to provide your company significant royalties, its unsurprising said company can afford many more of the brightest minds to push the bleeding edge of technology. In spite of this, Samsung has persisted in pushing forward their own LTE chipset, despite the significantly hobbled ROI caused by Qualcomm's actions on such a chipset.

- batiudrami 8y agoThe reasoning I have heard for Samsung handsets shipping with Qualcomm chips in the US is the need to be compatible with legacy CDMA networks (which is the patent issue). Flagship Samsung handsets everywhere except the US and China ship with Exynos SOC.
