The Qualcomm Snapdragon X75 modem will be able to support 10-carrier aggregation along with much better AI performance. The first devices with the new modem are coming in late 2023.

MediaTek has announced the M80, its 5G mmWave modem. This is an advancement from the M70 which was its first generation 5G modem for smartphones. The M80 should be available later this year.

Intel has announced that the sale of its smartphone modem business to Apple has been completed, after it was originally announced in June of this year. The deal is worth about $1 billion.

In a conference call today, Qualcomm posited that it won't be supplying the modems for Apple's next iPhones. However, the firm will continue to supply modems for Apple's legacy devices.

Broadcom has raised its bid for Qualcomm from the original offer back in November. The new bid prices Qualcomm's shares at $82 a piece, which is 17% higher than their original offer.

In another blow to Qualcomm, Apple may be using modems manufactured by Intel exclusively in all 2018 phones. In their current flagship, the iPhone X, both Qualcomm and Intel modems are used.

Intel today unveiled its fifth-generation LTE model, the XMM 7560 modem. Promising gigabit speeds, the modem will be manufactured on a 14nm process and offer 225Mbps upload speeds.

Qualcomm has unveiled its first mass-market-ready 5G modem, dubbed the Snapdragon X50. It can support download speeds of up to 5 Gbps, MIMO antennas, and mmWave technology and it's coming soon.
