Report: Apple to Use Qualcomm's X55 5G Modem in All Three 2020 iPhones

I think they'll put 5G in every model, just like they have the same A13 chip in the 11 and the 11 Pro. OLED with ProMotion will likely be the flagship feature of the pro models, I wonder if they'll stick with LCD for the 12 or if they'll go for an OLED with a lower refresh rate.
That's just my proudest Apple product - best design ever. Don't feel the need post everything else..my presence alone indicates I'm a fanboiiii.If you're using an iMac G4 from 2002, the 2020 iPhone is not the only thing you're holding out for....
Think it’s just timing and load. My response on this site on my Xs max, goes from instant to slow. I hope this is addressed by a minor version forum update.
As far as Qualcomm modems, great news but I’m not expecting miracles.
FYI - 5.4 is the actual usable area of the 5.8 phone - I am guessing the notch will be gone on the 2020 phones.
Wife is upgrading her XR to 12, I however I’m going to hang onto my 11 Pro Max.
5G isn’t going to be widely available for another year or two and it’s not worth an upgrade for me just for something I can’t utilize.
It took me three years to actually get 4G service after it was introduced.

I can't imagine why. Get the screen size you want.
My dream is that the smallest phone won't be limited in some way, but I guess we'll see how that pans out.
that’s supposed to be earlier in the year
like how SE was launched in early 2016

would be nice
although expect battery life to take a hit because 5g and 90-120 hz displays will drain battery much faster, especially that combo
I don’t 5nm will make much of a difference. It’s why they are looking at adopting or modifying that OLED tech with low refresh rate when not in use like series 5 watch
There will be no product called “SE”.
You do realise the SE is a dead product line that hasn’t been updated in nearly 4 years?
What will most likely release next year is a refresh to the 4.7 inch iphone 8.
People need to stop banging on about the SE , i was issued one by work it’s a horrible phone way too small for modern use.
Actually the X55 is available this Quarter. The Note 10s will use the X55 and the OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren will be an X55 device. It has been announces and will be shipping soon.
Put me in the tin foil hat camp, I don't care -- after seeing this rumor, I believe my next iPhone will either be one of the 11 variants, or the rumored SE next year. Not interested in 5G until we see real-life health effects after having it rolled out on a wide scale for a few years (even that is still a ways off, frankly). I'm the type to keep my devices for 3+ years. Gonna wait out this 5G expansion and watch it from a distance.
Great info. If that is the case I will not mind the 5.4inch screen. Thanks
I’m excited about the 5.4” phone. I’ve had an iphone X since that launched, and its always irked me that its ever so slightly cumbersome to hold for those such as myself with smaller hands. Shaving that size down even a little should make a huge difference on an ergonomics front.
