iPhone 16e packs the first Apple custom cellular modem

The new iPhone 16e contains Apple’s first custom cellular modem dubbed “C1.”

“Expanding the benefits of Apple silicon, C1 is the first modem designed by Apple and the most power-efficient modem ever on an iPhone, delivering fast and reliable 5G cellular connectivity,” Apple says. “Apple silicon — including C1 — the all-new internal design, and the advanced power management of iOS 18 all contribute to extraordinary battery life.”

All other iPhones use modems from Qualcomm. However, y the upcoming iPhone 17 line-up will likely sport the C1 modem. And I want to see one incorporated into the next version of the MacBook Pro.
