Qualcomm had nothing to do with creating the revolutionary Touch ID, the world's most popular camera, or the Retina display Apple's customers love
To be fair Apple only created the Touch ID (through an acquired company), the camera and LCD are basically off the shelf and not even top of the line off the shelf.
Well, at least regarding the camera, the software they have running behind the parts is pretty novel and one of the reasons you pick an iPhone over an android device.
The camera just works, is lightning fast, and generally makes good decisions when you take a pic off the cuff. Apple did that.
edit: also, the stuff they are doing with two lenses to pull off smarter zoom photography without a real telephoto lens, depth of field, 3D for better AR applications... apple innovates like crazy in the space, even if their actual lenses and sensors are "off the shelf"
edit edit: and if they got touch ID behind the display that is a massive, innovative game changer.
