The official representatives of Apple, the world-famous American tech giant, report that the corporation is willing to invest a record-high amount of money in innovation and development. The estimated sum is $10,5bn.
Apple hopes to consolidate its position in the international arena and to be more successful in terms of competing with Samsung and other major tach giants. At this point, the company is working on the equipment used to polish plastic bodies for iPhone 5C as well as camera testing equipment. The corporation is also working on the laser machinery used to carve a MacBook body from a solid piece of aluminum.
