Apple has been on the agenda for years with its efforts to develop its own modem. Finally, rumors emerged that Apple will come with the new iPhone 15 series for the 5G model. However, the latest news shows that the situation is the opposite. According to allegations, the Apple 5G model will not be at least three more years. Here are the details!
The reason for Apple’s 5G modem delay is due to Apple
As it is known, Apple uses cellular modems developed by Qualcomm in its own devices. However, it is also known that the company has been trying to develop its own modem for years. In particular, it was even rumored that the company would launch its own modem with the iPhone 15 series.
The emerging news points to the opposite. According to the latest reports, it seems that Apple’s plan will take some time. Former company engineers and executives who witnessed the project made some statements on this subject.
In the statement, it was quickly realized that it was impossible to reach the target and that the delay in question was caused by Apple. In this case, the reasons for the slowdown of the project include problems such as poor communication, technical difficulties and managers turning to designing chips instead of buying them.
On the other hand, it turned out that the prototype tests for the 5G modem did not work out very well. Allegedly, the chip was very slow and had a tendency to overheat. The circuit board was large enough to cover half of the iPhone. Therefore, it was not possible to use it.
In addition to all this, it was stated that the 5G modem was three years behind Qualcomm’s best modem chip. This means we won’t see Apple’s own modem for a long time. It was also stated that the company is in no hurry on this issue. In the light of this information, it is understood that there will be an Apple Qualcomm partnership for a long time.
