Apple iPhone will continue to use 5G baseband, which will be extended to 2027!

A few days ago, a well-known person on the Internet announced that Apple's self-developed 5G chip research and development had failed. Apple has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in chip research and development. After such a long time of efforts, the result of the failure is enough to see the difficulty of chip research and development. It seems that Apple will continue to use Qualcomm's 5G chip, and it is said that it will continue to use Qualcomm's 5G chip until about 2027.

Well known analysts said that Apple's 5G chip research and development had failed, while Qualcomm had received orders for 5G baseband chips in the next few years. This morning, it was reported that the cooperation between Apple and Qualcomm would be extended to 2027, that is, five years later.

The current situation may not see Apple's self-developed 5G baseband until five years later. In fact, Apple has invested little in this area. Apple's self-developed 5G baseband is really not smooth. One of the important reasons is legal issues, not technical issues.

In addition to Apple, many mobile phone brands in China are also carrying out independent research and development work, such as Xiaomi, Huawei, etc. The investment in chip self research is also very large. I believe that in the next ten years, all major brands can launch their own chips, and the mobile phone market will be more prosperous.
