Intel reportedly denies delaying Apple’s ‘5G iPhones’

Recently it was reported that Apple has apparently lost confidence in Intel for its timely launch of 5G modem chips for future iPhones. The Cupertino-based tech firm was also speculated to be considering working on its own 5G chips. But Intel has reportedly cleared the air and has reconfirmed that the arrival schedule of 5G chips has not been changed, according to a statement provided to The Fast Company website.
Intel, as mentioned in November last year, re-confirmed the claim stating that “As we said in November 2018, Intel plans to support customer device launches in 2020 with its XMM 8160 5G multimode modem.” If everything goes according to the plan, Apple might be able to launch 5G iPhones in 2020. The chip-maker is said to deliver samples to Apple this summer.
