The saga of Apple switching to its own cellular modem has been a pretty tumultuous one, and at one point, it was expected that Qualcomm will be abandoned as a supplier in 2023. However, that didn’t happen: On the contrary, Qualcomm bagged “the vast majority of share of 5G modems for the 2023 iPhone launch,” according to Qualcomm Chief Financial Officer Akash Palkhiwala.
Apple, on the other hand, is tapping the foundry of its long-time partner TSMC for making its 5G chip. Experts say bringing another component in-house will help Apple save on manufacturing costs, and might also bring some performance improvements.
Regardless of when consumers get to see the next iPhone SE, which seems exceedingly distant in the future, it will bring some welcome changes. Industry insiders claim that Apple will finally ditch the design that it introduced with the iPhone 8 for its next “SE” smartphone.
In fact, Kuo claims that the upcoming iPhone SE’s engineering prototype is modeled after the iPhone 14. That means Apple’s next budget phone might finally ditch the ancient bezel-loaded design, add an extra camera at the back, and may add FaceID authentication into the mix as well.
