          Anonymous, 03 Apr 2019Microsoft actually makes keyboards.But you get the point right? Telling Apple to make something, when they can just out source to a company that specializes in the making of these parts for years, instead of having their own warehouses produce their own 5G modems, where it will also cost a lot of money to even come up with a tech team who can make a 5G modem that actually works without copying an already patented design, in less than two years so they can compete with the market is nonsense.

            Apple will simply solve this problem by Re-Branding 4G as Intelligent-G, like the 720p and below displays were called Retina Displays.

            And the herd will buy them by the truckloads, regardless of what generation of Modems they have.

            That's the beauty of branding.

              hahahahahahahahaha

                      They the only IOS , on the other side Google android is different story and different style.

                        Doubtful.

                        Both QC and Samsung (and intel) could make millions of dollars given the millions of iphones that apple would sell. Dont they like money anymore?

                            Hey Apple try making the modems yourselves for a start.. Apple can't make displays, not modems, no this, not that, but they can make weird and cringeworthy ads.
