    Of course, cheaper components to squeeze more $$$ in profits. Typical Apple, cheaping out on product components for more profits from their m-i-n-d-l-e-s-s er I mean loyal customers.

                Anonymous, 03 Jul 2018Apple should go to Huawei. They are the most clever and innovative regarding 5GHuawei is not chipsets manufacturer dude. They only work on the technology. Apple is looking for chipsets maker aka producer aka supplier.

                    Mediatek is far far away on Qualcomm.
                    Nobody loves Mediatek when we are talking about midrange and flagships.

                        Mediatek better do a good job at it. Helio M70 sounds promising. Hope our 5G network are ready by 2019. So many phone maker planning on this same route.
