Apple’s First 5G Chip Reportedly Doesn’t Support mmWave, 2025 iPads May Use Apple-Designed Wi-Fi Chip
Apple’s self-developed 5G modems may lack mmWave support, and it’s possible that Apple’s rumored new in-house Wi-Fi chip will be used in some iPad models in 2025, according to a report from Taiwanese industry publication DigiTimes.

Apple is rumored to have been working on its own 5G modem for iPhones since 2018, but the first version of the chip might lack mmWave support.
iPhone SE and iPhone 17 rumored to get Apple's 5G modem first, in 2025
Yet another report says Apple's own 5G modem will launch in 2025, cutting Qualcomm out of its iPhone SE and even iPhone 17 profits.
2025 iPads will potentially be the first Apple devices sporting their new 5G chips
However, I am also curious to see how these reported first iPads with a 5G chip will perform and whether the software will run smoothly or run into first gen bugs. Growing pains are expected, but overall this development is a positive step for Apple, and I am eager to see how it unfolds in the coming years for iPads and iPhones alike.
The iPhone SE 4 and next iPads could bring significant 5G and Wi-Fi changes – here’s why
That’s not all. Apple will supposedly roll out its own Wi-Fi chip in new iPads next year. Alternatively, DigiTimes also suggests that the Wi-Fi chip might instead launch in the iPhone 18 series in 2026.
