Qualcomm X65 debuts - the world's first 10 Gbps 5G modem

09 February 2021
This is 100x faster than early LTE modems. The first devices using the X65 and the cheaper X62 will be out before the end of the year.

Sort by:

I hope they make the modems slightly or significantly smaller with the SoC or even better, integrate the thing into the SoC itself, that way we can conserve space and power too? maybe? They should also really make the modems power efficient too.

            Honestly, I am still waiting for a proper phone with SD 480 which qualcomm claims is affordable but nowhere to be found.

                CHINESE BRANDS FANS, 09 Feb 2021Lol, it will take up extra space, very fast battery drainer... moreSpace for a headphone jack maybe? 200mAh battery capacity? You're claustrophobic.

                      So...am I reading correctly that this modem will have mmWave integrated so it's not a separate part anymore? I really hope so...that way, the US versions of these phones don't be super different because of mmWave...

                                      What a joke, now you can get 5g on midrange phones. 5g is reserved for Snapdragon 8 series only.
                                      Once you have 5g on midrange, 5g becomes congested just like what happened to 4g.
