A report from Bloomberg says that Apple has plans to eventually replace Broadcom's current iPhone chip with one that handles cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth.
Apple is reportedly working on a chip that it hopes to employ on the iPhone starting in 2025. This chip would allow Apple to replace an important Broadcom chip used on the device, replacing it with one that it would design in-house.
Making matters worse for Broadcom, Apple is said to be working on in-house components for other parts supplied by the company including radio-frequency chips and chips for wireless charging. Interestingly, you might recall that Broadcom made an unsolicited $117 billion offer to buy Qualcomm in March 2018 thatBroadcom CEO Hock Tan might be whistling past the graveyard but he remained optimistic about his company continuing to supply Apple.
