This: the next Apple Watch on your wrist might be zipping along on 5G speeds, thanks to a new partnership with MediaTek. Right now, Apple Watch models have Intel's 4G modems, which is kind of surprising since iPhones and iPads have been 5G for years. But change is coming!
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman says Apple is looking to switch to MediaTek's 5G modems. Why? Well, Intel's modems are stuck at 4G, and MediaTek's are designed for faster, more efficient 5G. Plus, MediaTek is using the latest manufacturing processes, which could make your future Apple Watch last longer.
Apple's wearable division brings in billions, so a switch to 5G could be a big deal. And who knows, maybe one day Apple will use MediaTek for iPhones too. But for now, let's just enjoy the thought of a super-fast Apple Watch!
