Love to play computer games On November 16, it was reported that according to foreign media reports, a source said that Apple was recruiting a group of engineers in San Diego, the United States (where Qualcomm headquarters is located), in order to improve their capabilities in the field of AI chips, wireless chips and communication baseband (modems). This indicates that Apple is trying to reduce its dependence on external suppliers. Maybe we will see a new iPhone with 5G chips developed by Apple itself in 2020.

It is reported that due to the current patent dispute between Apple and Qualcomm, the relationship between the two companies has not been very good recently. After many years of cooperation with Qualcomm, Apple even chose Intel as the only communication baseband supplier of the new iPhone in 2018, which also led to the worse signal of the iPhone XS series, and many users could not stand direct calls.

Apple's move indicates that the cooperation between Intel and Apple may not last long, because after Apple has developed its own baseband and mass produced it will not need to purchase similar products from Intel. In the future, all core chips of iPhone will be developed by Apple itself.

Previously, foreign media reported that Samsung was developing a 5G version of the Galaxy S10, which only uses its own Exynos 9820 processor and Exynos 5100 baseband, which will further affect Qualcomm's revenue.
