Apple working on in-house cellular modem, camera sensors and more: Report

Apple is reportedly working on several key components, such as an indigenous cellular modem, MicroLED displays, camera sensors and more, for their upcoming devices.

According to Apple analyst Mark Gurman, Apple is building its own cellular modem, which is expected to be ready by 2026. Apple plans to replace Qualcomm’s modem components that are currently used on iPhones with their in-house chip in future lineups. However, due to development setbacks, it might take an additional two to three years to get the chip inside cellular versions of Apple Watch and iPads.
