The first quarter of this year the British chip designer ARM Holdings profit rose 22%, to 227500000 pounds (about $339000000), the reason why there will be such a large increase, mainly because of the use of 64 bit iPhone 6 series of products as well as the recent listing of Samsung Galaxy S6.
Analysts had forecast ARM revenues for the quarter was $335000000, and now they successfully predicted more than analysts. In the quarter, ARM CFO Tim Score said the license fee revenues increased because they are in possession of a new intelligent mobile phone market share is very high.
ARM also said the industry revenue will be continued to decline in the next few quarters, the seasonal dynamic changes of related industries. A lot of smart mobile phone manufacturers release new products in March of this year's MWC, but these products usually have to wait until the autumn will be listed. Apple is also in September released a new product.
Although the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6 are used in the chip manufacturers of production, but they still depends on the structure of ARM authorization. The license fee is not small, apple and Samsung are therefore able to spend more time and resources on the chip optimization.If you want to buy cool iphone 6 Plus cases ,please go to favor2buy .com.

Fourth of the fifth LG market share of 6.2%, Lenovo has a 6% market share, other manufacturers share the remaining 33% cake.
TrendForce speculates that Samsung sold 80000000 smartphones in the second quarter of this year, the Samsung S6 and S6 Edge will account for 20000000, as iPhone the agency estimates that there will be second quarter shipments of nearly 45000000.
