Apple's in-house 5G modem lacks mmWave support, although its internally designed WiFi chip will be used in some 2025 iPad models.

Apple could integrate its in-house Wi-Fi chips into 2025 iPads. The iPhone SE 4 could also be the first to pack its 5G chips.

DigiTimes stated Apple’s 5G modem will likely debut in the iPhone SE early in 2025, with the vendor then targeting use in its next flagship model in the back half. A Wi-Fi chip could debut in iPads in 2025, though the news outlet added Apple may opt to hold this for its high-end iPhone models unveiled in 2026.

Apple is expected to equip iPhones with its self-developed 5G modem in 2025, including the newest iPhone SE as soon as 1H25 and certain iPhone 17 models in 2H25.

More in-house Apple chips could arrive on future iPhones and iPads as early as next year. These include Wi-Fi and 5G chips that are vital for those products.
