2025 iPhone SE and iPhone 17 to feature Apple's own 5G modems, shifting from Qualcomm.

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that in 2025, two iPhone models will feature Apple's own 5G modems: the fourth-generation iPhone SE in Q1 and the "ultra-slim" iPhone 17 in Q3. This move marks a shift from using Qualcomm's 5G modems. The adoption of Apple's in-house 5G technology is expected to reduce the company's reliance on Qualcomm and is anticipated to occur two years ahead of initial expectations.
