Apple plans to introduce its in-house Wi-Fi chip with the iPhone 17 Pro. At least, this is what Haitong Securities analyst Jeff Pu reports. According to him, in 2025, Apple plans to implement its in-house Wi-Fi 7 chip to the iPhone 17 Pro series. In addition, by 2026, all iPhone 18 models will use Apple’s in-house Wi-Fi chip.
This report corroborates what Bloomberg wrote earlier this year: Apple’s developing a custom Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip for the 2025 release. At the time, the publication said that even with Apple planning to make this change, Broadcom, which currently supplies this chip, would continue sending Apple other components, such as radio-frequency chips and one that handles wireless charging.
