I’ve already spoken about one of the plays made by Apple and Tim Cook to damage Android. This was the push to 64-bit computing in the iPhone 5S. As that smartphone was announced, the roadmaps for Android devices did not have 64-bit computing planned in the near future. Manufacturers and component suppliers were bounced into making bold claims that they would join Apple in the 64-bit world.
They had no choice but to do this. Android’s success was built around the promise of being faster, better, and stronger than its rival OS. If Apple was 64-bit, Android had to be 64-bit as well. Promises were made, plans were changed, and the rush to 64-bit comp
The impact of that push remain to this day. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810 was the chipset expected to lead the charge, but production issues have forced manufacturers to delay products into Q3 2015, or choose alternative chips with the resulting compatibility problems of running third-party Android applications.
Apple weakened the chipsets in Android by forcing the manufacturers to follow them on the 64-bit roadmap. Resources, time, and developmental energies were directed away from competing directly with Apple and into something that has taken far longer than planned.

What would those accusations be?
Any reader who comes on this thread and the other ones about Apple can see from their OWN READING ... that you are a consistent Apple-hater. That kind of thing requires no proof, other than the reader’s own eyes.
Ahhh ... another Apple-hater arrives ... LOL ...
It's all black and white, isn't it?
Are you injecting the race card here? ... LOL ...
You could start with this one:
You “hate” isn’t directed at the company. Apple haters on FR aim to shut down the discussion.
But I'm betting you just try to side-step it.
The sub-title to that is “Posted by an Apple-hater” ... :-) ...
Ummm ... are you an Apple-hater? ... :-) ...
The U.S. Supreme Court said ... “I can recognize hate when I see it!” ... oh wait a minute, that was porn!
It applies to Apple-haters, too!
Are you saying you do not try to shut down the discussion?
And, if you hadn’t come around, I would have left this thread an hour ago. You fuel this stuff.
Go back and read what I said yesterday .., or the day before. Ad someone in the stick market, I can assure you no company remains number one. No one.
Although I bought a new MacBook Pro the day after Christmas, I have been Freeping with my iPadn so I have lots of typos.
I bought a nice Bluetooth keyboard, just need to hook it up? In the meantime, lots of typos and errors.
I’ll check in to advise that I discovered a 3G I phone and found that it is really a small computer with a phone ap. Recently i had some stuff I wanted and 3G was archaic.Then I fell in the lake.....
I went to e bay and bought a used 4GS...... it is just great.
My son almost disowned us for our apples. We have laptops running Windows 8 and Kindles but we really like our I phones
people that dis i phones are a lot like those here that rag on McDonalds and Walmart. All three are the top of their various heaps and some just can’t accept the greatness.
You’ve still got your Apple-hater stripes showing through ... :-) ...
You should learn the difference between proof and dogma.
Glad to hear you’re good with your iPhone. It’s always nice to hear from fellow FReepers about that.
