Apple continues to invest billions of dollars and millions of working hours in developing its own cellular modems, despite doubts about their effectiveness. According to insider Mark Gurman, these modems are unlikely to improve the company's devices.
Here's What We Know
Apple currently uses Qualcomm modems, which are considered among the best on the market. However, the company is keen to be independent and wants to create its own modems so that it is not dependent on Qualcomm and its patents.
The development is being led by the same team that created the successful M-series chips for the Mac and iPad. However, Apple faces performance and overheating issues that make it difficult to create a competitive modem. One reason for Apple's pursuit of its own modems may be a desire to integrate all wireless functions, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, into a single chip. Despite the current challenges, the company is still working on the project, hoping for future success.
