The iPhone SE 4 launch will mark a major milestone for Apple in many ways. For one, the device will rock an OLED panel, which means that it will
finally shift Apple from LCD displays to OLED panels on the iPhone. Additionally, it will also be the first device to incorporate the company's first custom 5G modem. A new report claims that the iPhone SE 4 will house Apple's latest A18 chip, custom 5G modem, and much more at launch early
next year.
We have previously covered that Apple plans to bring its custom 5G modem to the entire iPhone lineup, starting with the SE 4. Now, 9to5mac has corroborated the same information, suggesting that the company's custom 5G modem will house WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS capabilities. Additionally, the device is also slated to launch with the new A18 chip, which was introduced with the new iPhone 16 models.
As mentioned, Apple has been working on its custom 5G modems for years, and next year, it could finally see fit to begin incorporating the modem into
its different product lineup. We have previously covered that the company's custom modem will offer subpar performance compared to the current versions from Qualcomm, and it remains to be seen how the Cupertino giant will compensate for the loss. However, there will be some benefits as well, as
it will be an all-in-one solution, allowing the chip also to house
Bluetooth, WiFi, and GPS capabilities.

How can they have "previously covered" the performance of something
that exists only in Apple's labs?
Did you read the article they linked where they made their claim
initially? I did.
They offer literally no substantiation for their claim.
All they offer is a link to an article by Mark Gurman that doesn't
even claim the performance will be "sub-par".
But that Gurman article does say one thing that he actually CAN know something about:
'The company’s chip designers are widely seen as the best in the
industry, helping Apple products stand out with speed and battery
efficiency. The team started with the A4 chip in the original iPad and
now has technology in every major Apple device. It also helped
customize suppliers’ components, such as displays and batteries.

Interesting, because it's right there in the article. The words "subpar
performance" link to another WCCFTech article that references Bloomberg
as the source of this claim. And if you follow that trail of articles,
you see that the claim of supposed "subpar performance" is based on
speculation rather than hard evidence (which is very typical of
Bloomberg).
Are you talking about this article? There’s really not anything in there blasting Apple. It only says it will take a long time for Apple to recoup
its expenses that it already pays to Qualcomm in royalties.

Right.
So you posted a quote about supposed "subpar performance" with not
basis in even rumour.

BINGO
Your dishonesty is so blatant. Why can’t you just have a normal conversation without making up lies about me?

What lie?
Did you copy and paste this:
"We have previously covered that the company's custom modem will offer
subpar performance compared to the current versions from Qualcomm"?
Yes or no.
Was there any support for that assertion anywhere in the chain of
articles that you can follow from your quoted article?
Yes or no.
The iPhone SE 4 launch will mark a major milestone for Apple in many ways.

LOL, I've had him filtered out for a long time so I have no idea what he approves or does not approve.
Killfiles are only good for pretending you have control over someone
else. You will still see their messages in someone else's reply.
Might as well killfile everyone but yourself!
You can delete all those and start again. 90% of them aren’t here anymore.
