Just some time ago, Apple's self-developed 5G baseband chip is facing a dilemma again, and it is difficult for iPhones to be equipped with self-developed 5G chips in the past two years, which means that Apple's dream of getting rid of its dependence on Qualcomm as soon as possible has been shattered. However, Apple has never given up the toss, the latest news revealed, Apple is still not giving up, getting rid of Qualcomm failed, Apple plans to get rid of Broadcom's dependence, self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chip.
The latest analyst report revealed that Apple is developing its own Wi-Fi 7, which is planned to be equipped with the iPhone 17 Pro series models launched in 2025, but Apple only plans to use its own Wi-Fi 7 chip on the iPhone 7 Pro series models, and the low-end version of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will not be used until 2026, and the self-developed Wi-Fi chip will be extended to the entire iPhone 18 series. In fact, in January 2023, it was revealed that Apple plans to eliminate Broadcom's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chips in 2025 and use its own chip design instead.
Of course, this is just a plan, whether it can be realized in the end depends on the real news, the failure of Apple's self-developed chips is not once or twice, we can only wait and see.
