5G Chips

For better or worse, Apple is typically slower to adopt new cellular technologies than its competitors. While the hype around 5G is strong for 2019, Apple stands out as one of the only major smartphone OEMs said to be holding off on adopting the next-generation tech until 2020.

5G is largely expected to revolutionize the way we interact with technology and the internet, but it’s probably not going to change the world this year — or anytime soon. So while Apple’s decision to wait until 2020 to debut a 5G iPhone could backfire, it may also just be “right on time” so to speak.
