Apple, the iPhone 16e for the first time in the model instead of Qualcomm’ded the modem designed. This is an attempt that will affect not only iPhones but all future Apple devices. The C1 Modem did not only provide cost advantages to Apple, but also brought two great features that will help users.Advanced power efficiency
Apple, iPhone 16e announcement did not give much space C1 modem. It was said that it was the first modem designed by Apple and provides a fast and reliable 5G connection by offering the highest power efficiency on an iPhone. The brand new interior design of the Apple chip with C1 modem and the developed power management of iOS 18 made an incredible contribution to the battery life of the device.
Advanced power efficiency of C1 is an important improvement for those who use a multi -cell linker from WiFi. The iPhone 16e performs almost 20 %better than the iPhone 16 as battery life. In the iPhone 17 series, Apple is said to use this modem in the thin and light model. We will see if the iPhone 17 Air will be called the iPhone model that will offer both thin and long battery life.
Class C modem will not be limited to iPhones. The C1 chip is expected to be used in the M4 processor MacBook Air, which will be introduced soon.
Priority of data usage
Another big advantage of C1 modem is; Qualcomm’s modem can never be integrated with iOS. With this integration, the iPhone understands what you are doing at any time and prioritizes data usage accordingly. When you face network blockage, Qualcomm’s modem does not know which data requests are the most important. This results in a frustrating experience. However, Apple’s C1 can offer more sensitive and intelligent data to meet your full needs.
Apple C2 Modem Test Stage
Aside from these improvements, the speed tests of the Apple C1 modem were not published. Apple’s first modem is expected to be slower than Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon X71 modem on other iPhones. In the meantime, Apple is known to have already started to test the C2 modem for future iPhone models. Apple’s second generation modem can offer faster and more reliable 5G connection and even savings even more power.
