Apple to replace Qualcomm with custom modems in iPhone 18

作者 PulseAugur 编辑部 · [2 个来源] ·

Apple is reportedly phasing out Qualcomm modems in favor of its own custom-designed chips, starting with the iPhone 18 lineup expected in September 2026. This transition, which has been in development for years, will also bring a privacy enhancement called 'Limit Precise Location' to more iPhone users. This feature restricts the granular location data shared with mobile carriers, potentially limiting them to neighborhood-level accuracy instead of street-level. AI

影响 Minimal direct impact on AI operators; primarily a hardware and privacy feature shift for consumers.

排序理由 Significant shift in hardware sourcing for a major product line from a Tier-1 tech company. [lever_c_demoted from significant: ic=2 ai=0.1]
