Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, recently paid a visit to Japan where he engaged with local teams, developers, and schoolchildren using the company's educational resources. The Apple CEO also met with Sony executives in addition to these. Cook said that Apple has been utilising Sony camera sensors for more than ten years after meeting with executives from the company.



“We’ve been cooperating with Sony for over a decade to build the world’s finest camera sensors for iPhone. Thanks to Ken and everyone on the team for showing me around the cutting-edge facilities in Kumamoto today,” he added in his tweet.
