Kuo: All iPhone 17 Models Will Feature Apple-Designed Wi-Fi Chip to ‘Enhance Connectivity’

Apple will use its own custom-designed Wi-Fi chip in all upcoming iPhone 17 models, according to industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.



Writing in a post on X (Twitter), Kuo said the switch to in-house Wi-Fi chips will “enhance connectivity across Apple devices” while also giving Apple a cost reduction.

All current iPhone models are equipped with a combined Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip supplied by Broadcom, but Kuo has previously said he expects Apple to equip “nearly all” of its products with its own in-house Wi-Fi chip “within about three years.”
