Hi peeps, Anyone working in Apple modem software teams any idea till when 5g modem will be ready and good in performance as Qualcomm modem? Latest news is so far no luck for 2023 iphones. For Qualcomm folks, what you think about modern sw future once Apple makes it happen own 5g modem, in couple years may be. Mainly impact on SD teams. TC: 260K
Why haven't they done WLAN inhouse till now ? If they cant to that modems are years away, please correct me if I'm wrong?
Dumb answer but is it possible that Apple doesn’t want to do WLAN in-house? Whereas they want modem in-house?
More informed reply, they have poached good BRCM engineers for quite while to bring up in-house solution but I guess Hok Tan has been giving really good price to renew contracts
Not failed. Probably just delayed

I asked the same question in another thread and it turns out some random guy is holding Apple hostage to an undeclared milestone. So it’s just smoke and mirrors until Apple smokes QCOM.
What was the update on that thread? Are they gonna do it by 2023?
They haven’t called out a timeline, but it appears to be 2024 or later.
