Apple to work with Samsung, AGAIN !
Apple's 20nm A8 chip that can be found inside both the Apple iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus is by no means outdated or trailing behind the Qualcomm competition performance-wise, but rumors and speculations about Apple's next chipset, most probably the A9, are already making the rounds.
It looks like the SoC in question will be manufactured by Samsung, Apple's greatest rival, itself and the South Korea giant will be using a 14nm fabrication process under Samsung's three-dimensional FinFet technology, which means that the chipset won't be flat like the regular silicon chipsets. Allegedly, the 14nm process itself will make the Apple A9 35% more energy-efficient, 20% faster, and 15% smaller than the currently existing 20nm chipsets, the Apple A8 and Samsung's Exynos 5 Octa 5433 (found inside certain Galaxy Note 4 variants) among them. This was confirmed by Kim Ki-nam, the head of Samsung’s semiconductor business, which also claimed that thanks to this, the company's earnings will increase
Oops
The fact that Apple is willing to work with their biggest rival, that keeps on making fun of them, for the 100th time in a row (most iPhone and iPads have Samsung components) 
Get your money king !!!
