Apple has started work on its own modem

07 February 2019
Reuters reports that Apple is hiring engineers in San Diego, Qualcomm's home town. The work will take years, but there are many benefits.

Sort by:

The new nsa modem. Gg. Ppl are scared of the Huawei 5g, but they will gladly buy the Apple nsa modem.

    Qualcomm will be the loser in the end. Too greedy!

      well, SoC is sammycrappy so, the modem i dont know if they go all with them too, even i dont know if sammycrappy have done or built in modem and if so, crApple chips wont need to be intel or qualcomm...

      but for sure, they are burned itself so many times, this time i hope it will be badly so it can go bankrupt easy...yeah baby, get out of deal, you already should, overpriced pieces of crAppp, oh wait: put a mediatek modem, for sure it will make your devices much more crapppy than already are. :P

      dont mind at all, if you see this dont reply, i belive you will defend crApple so, i dont mind at all, dont waste your time.

        Anonymous, 07 Feb 2019Apple should have done this years before. But there don't ... moreIt took great amount of time and effort to lead the SoC front in the ARM after roping in Intel expert....Modem, I am not sure how long it might take considering Apple recent challenges in Software, WiFi, Network related aspects but having worked closely with Qualcomm and Intel, they could pull a magic

          Well even if apple made own 5G modems when they release them maybe a 6G network will be out.
          So in case of apple they are last as always.
          Instead of go and say please can you they start a war on the court and this is the result.
          Poor apple? No. Hell no.
          Poor qualcomm there is nothing i would shred even the tiny tear for apple company.

            But there don't have any sane or intelligent person in management.

              [deleted post]Quite possible, they probably made some deals with intel as well.....

                    exciting stuff! alreaduy starting to catch up with samsung

                      [deleted post]Indeed. And they will sure bumb up the price, so it wouldn't surprise me if the future upcoming iPhone's cost more.
                      Simply, Galaxy is better and they offer more for reasonable prices.
