This 5G iPhone may not come in 2020
Cupertino-based tech giant Apple is expected to make its entry in the 5G race in 2020. As per previous information shared by tipster and former KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is expected to launch four 5G-enabled iPhones, including sub-6GHz and sub-6GHz-and-mmWave models.
Now, a fresh claim by Susquehanna analyst Mehdi Hosseini suggests that Apple may withhold the launch of mmWave models till December 2020 or January 2021. This means that the 5G iPhone lineup could arrive in two batches where the company is first expected to unveil sub-6GHz models in September and later on launch the mmWave in December or January.
According to analyst Mehdi Hosseini, “The delay in the launch, according to our checks, stems from Apple’s decision to in-source the Antenna-in-Package (AiP) modules instead of purchasing from the 3rd party.”
