“Among the parts Apple is expected to utilize are Qualcomm’s “MDM9615″ LTE chip, which supports both voice and data connections on high speed 4G networks. That chip would be a change from the new iPad, which features Qualcomm’s “MDM9600.†But that hardware only offers data connections over 4G LTE, not voice.â€
In addition to Qualcomm companies like Chipmakers Skyworks Solutions, TriQuint Semiconductor, and Avago Technologies are potential components suppliers.
Knowing the 4G LTE technology is not exactly the most merciful on a handset`s battery,we are hoping Apple would find a way to smoothly integrate, if it decides to bring the feature to the next gen iPhone.
The report says that the new handset will be a world phone, which means manufacturing one global CDMA/GSM model.
Thoughts?
