This is the one that allows you to capture the signal emitted by 5G antennas.
Manufactured by the American founder Qualcomm, this part is the modelX65which was announced in February 2021. It is recognized for improved performance but also lower energy consumption when it comes to connecting to cellular data. It is very likely that the same chip is also integrated into the “classic” iPhone 14 and its big brother, the iPhone 14 Plus.
Record speed
But then, what does the Qualcomm X65 modem allow? According to official data provided by the manufacturer, to achieve a transfer capacity of up to10 Gb per second.

The iPhone 14 Pro, king of wireless
With these technical characteristics, the iPhone 14 Pro therefore promises to be a realracing beast. Especially since the device's other wireless connections also fly very high, for example with induction charging up to 7.5 watts or with MagSafe up to 15 watts. Bluetooth, for its part, is moving to generation 5.3, which consumes less energy and is less subject to interference. And finally, it's hard not to mentionthe case of satellite connectivity which allows you to contact emergencies without even having a traditional mobile network.
