During this period, after some reports circulated that Apple failed to develop its own modem chip. Now we are faced with news indicating that Apple is facing great difficulties in developing its own wireless network chips and integrating them into the iPhones scheduled to be released in 2025. But why is this happening? What are the obstacles in developing such chips? Follow this article with us, and we will share with you all the information about this news.

Apple finds difficulties in developing wireless chipsets

At this moment, news indicates that Apple will not use its own designs for wireless network chips. Although Apple plans to use these chip designs in 2025 through new iPhone versions. However, the time period is not sufficient for this to happen.

In addition, one of the most important basic plans that occupy Apple's mind at the present time is developing the internal components of the new phones and all devices that it manufactures.

But there is no alternative solution for Apple except to stop the wireless chip development project until next month. Or, more precisely, until it arranges its priorities and the team responsible for preparing these slides. It is worth noting that developing wireless chips is not the first project that Apple has invested in this year. Apple is currently investing in... Fifth generation modem chip.

What is preventing Apple from developing wireless network chips?

At first, we can say that Apple's failure to develop both the modem chip and the wireless network chips is Apple's lack of experience! This is because the suppliers of these chipsets are Qualcomm and Broadcom, which have great experience in this field. In addition, each of them has a patent in the communications sector.

Let us not forget the time factor, which is one of the most important reasons that will not allow Apple to complete the wireless chip development project in less than two years. In addition, some sources indicated that there has not been much confidence in the wireless network chips that Apple is developing yet.

But Apple's concerns at this moment are two things. The first is the tense relationship with Broadcom, the main supplier of wireless network chips. The second is that iPhone sales will decline if anything unexpected happens after using the wireless network chip in new phones.

In addition to these concerns, Apple believes that the new chipsets it will manufacture must be similar to Broadcom chipsets in power consumption and connectivity levels. But all of this is difficult to implement and integrate during Apple's iPhone releases during 2025.

What will Apple do after all this?

What is on the table to this day is that Apple will continue to cooperate with Broadcom, the main supplier of wireless network chips, but for a long time. This is instead of investing and spending on developing its own segments. In addition to the possibility of problems arising in the chipsets that affect the sales of its iPhone phones.
