Eminye imibiko iphakamisa ukuthi i-Apple isiqala ukuhlola ngemuva kokuthi isicelo esivela kulo mkhiqizo sokuqala ukuhlolwa ngejubane ledatha le-5G sethulwe emzimbeni olawula ezokuxhumana, iFederal Communications Commission (FCC). Kulokhu, sibhekene nokuthile okungekusha emhlabeni wezokuxhumana ngocingo nokuthi ngikwazi ukuzihlola mathupha engqungqutheleni yokugcina ye-Mobile World e-Barcelona, I-Apple manje izosebenzisa lobu buchwepheshe kwamanye amadivayisi ayo Esikhathini esingangonyaka kubalwa kusuka kwimvume enikeziwe, amaza asebenza kuwo lawa manethiwekhi aphakathi kwama-28 nama-39 GHz.
I-Apple ifuna ukuba amadivayisi ayo alungele futhi ukuvivinya lezi zivinini kuhle ukusebenzisa i-Hardware edingekayo nokunikeza ukusekelwa lapho ifika. Ngokwesicelo sefemu baphikisana ngqo nalokhu, ukuthi benza izivivinyo ukuze konke kusebenze kahle ngamanethiwekhi we-5G wesikhathi esizayo. Ukuhlolwa kuzokwenziwa kusuka ku- ICampertino Campus yayo yamanje kanye neMilpitas.
Iqiniso ukuthi kwamanye amadivayisi le datha ye-5G ingaba yisilo sangempela, uma i-4G yanamuhla ne-4G + sezivele zidonsa, i-5G yinto engalingani ngokweqile amazinga wejubane atholakala. Inkinga kulawa macala, njengenjwayelo, ingqalasizinda edingekayo ukuze ukwazi ukusebenzisa lejubane ledatha ye-5G, kufanele ucabange ukuthi emadolobheni amaningi kunzima ukuthi i-4G ifinyelele kuzo zonke izindawo futhi ikakhulukazi ngaphakathi kwezakhiwo, ngakho-ke i-5G ingaba omunye umhlaba.
Ngokusobala asilindeli ukuthi lobu buchwepheshe obukwazi ukusekela amanethiwekhi we-5G bungasetshenziswa kumadivayisi we-Apple kulo nyaka, kuzoba ngezizukulwane ezilandelayo ze-iPhone, i-iPad okwe 2018 kuya phambili.
