Apple and Samsung Might Be On The New List To Acquire Intel

Expert Verified By

End of Intel In The Coming Years?

Story Highlight
  • Companies like Qualcomm, Apple, and Samsung are rumored to be considering purchasing Intel amid its declining stock.
  • Acquiring Intel could benefit Qualcomm with x86 licensing and allow Apple to bypass Arm licensing for its chip production.
  • Intel faces issues such as poor reception of new processors, layoffs, and financial strain from heavy investments, making it a potential acquisition target.

Though it appears that this move is on hold until after the U.S. elections, speculations circulating a few weeks ago suggested that Qualcomm was interested in purchasing Intel.

According to recent claims from Moore’s Law Is Dead, Apple and Samsung may be among the other tech giants considering acquiring Intel.

Why it matters: The potential acquisition of Intel by companies like Qualcomm or Apple could reshape the semiconductor industry. 

Despite Intel’s substantial position in consumer and commercial markets, these rumors surface as the company’s stock faces a downward trend. Due to issues with its Arm licensing, Qualcomm one of the first businesses mentioned, would greatly benefit from an x86 license for its upcoming projects.

Apple, on the other hand, may be able to manufacture its chips without requiring Arm licensing if it purchases Intel. Furthermore, there are also rumors that Samsung is considering purchasing Intel.

A merger between Samsung and Intel might produce major benefits because both companies are major players in different industrial sectors. One cannot overlook Intel’s difficulties. According to certain suppliers, its Core Ultra 200S desktop processors have not been warmly accepted since their recent launch.

Intel also had to reduce expenses, which included laying off employees and canceling well-known events from prior years. That said, Intel has spent a lot of money developing discrete graphics cards and updating its semiconductor production facilities.

Since Intel appears to be in financial distress as a result of these expenditures, other large corporations may wish to seize this chance.
