Arm has canceled a license that allowed Qualcomm to use Arm intellectual property to design chips.
The split between Arm and Qualcomm is due to a breach of contract in 2022, which escalated a legal dispute over smartphone technology.
This legal battle could have widespread ramifications for consumer tech, particularly for Windows laptops that rely on Qualcomm Snapdragon chips and Arm's technology.
Arm and Qualcomm's competition with Intel, AMD, and Microsoft in the AI PC and OS market has led to more variety and affordable laptop prices for consumers.
