    Are apple devices the only phones that use the Texas Instruments ACE3 controller?

    • Yes. This controller was specifically created for Apple and it’s a proprietary chip.

      No other manufacturer uses it, and thus no other manufacturer has these security flaws. Apple didn’t rely on existing, tried and tested controllers but had to make something proprietary and ‘special’, and the fucked up in doing so.

        They had used the ACE2 in previous models, which didn’t have these flaws. What was the difference?
