The rumor: An Apple-designed 5G modem will debut in just a couple of years, according to Ming-Chi Kuo (76.6% accurate).
- A 5G modem designed by Apple may debut as soon as 2023, as Apple plans to stop using Qualcomm’s modems
- Apple is pushing forward on their quest to design and produce more and more of the components inside the iPhone
Our take: Seeing this makes me think about other parts of the iPhone that Apple might want to design and manufacture one day. Will Apple-designed screens and less of a reliance on Samsung’s tech be next?
