According to the latest report from DigiTimes, Apple’s iPhone 15 series will continue to use Qualcomm’s 5G modem (baseband chip), because Apple continues to develop its own 5G custom chips.
Apple is developing an in-house 5G modem designed to replace Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 5G modem within the next few years. Today’s report claims that TSMC will be Qualcomm’s leading supplier of 5G chips for the iPhone 15 series, using 5nm and 4nm processes.
We also recently learned that the Apple iPhone 14 series uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon X65 modem, which helps improve 5G speed and battery life. According to the latest news, the Apple iPhone 15 will use a more advanced Snapdragon X70 chip, which has artificial intelligence functions, can increase the average speed, improve coverage, improve signal quality, reduce latency, and improve energy efficiency by up to 60%.
Previous reports said Apple would switch to an in-house 5G modem as soon as 2023, but follow-up reports suggest that Apple’s 5G baseband chip development “failed” to meet timeline expectations and that Apple will continue to use Qualcomm modems for the foreseeable future.
