Lezi yizindaba zokuthi i-Fast Company isishiyile, lapho kuthiwa khona I-Apple izoba ngomunye wabokugcina ukujoyina ukuthunyelwa kwale 5G. Ngokusobala i-Apple ayiqinisekisi futhi ayiziphiki lezi zindaba njengoba bezihlale zenziwa, ngakho-ke kuzodingeka ukuthi ubekezele futhi ubone ukuthi lingakanani iqiniso elikuyo.
Okwamanje inkinga enkulu kuzoba yimodemu
Futhi yilokho I-Apple inezinkinga zomthetho ngeQualcomm ngakho-ke izokhuphula amamodemu we-Intel ezizukulwaneni zayo ezilandelayo ze-iPhone, okusho ukuthi lezi azilungiselelwe namuhla ukusebenzisa lobu buchwepheshe. Kubukeka futhi ukuthi imodem ye-Intel (eyi-8161) izoba nezinkinga ngokushiswa kokushisa nokusetshenziswa kwebhethri, okwenza inkampani yeCupertino kufanele igxile kuyo bese ingeza ithuba lokuxhuma kwe-5G.

Sizobona ukuthi kwenzekani ngempela njengoba izinsuku zihamba, kodwa lokhu kunjalo enye inkinga engezwa "ngokulwa" neQualcomm.
Ukubheka ukuthi awekho amanethiwekhi we-5G asetshenzisiwe njengamanje nokuthi azoqala nje ukuhambisa okuthile ngonyaka ozayo….
