Apple Could Buy Intel's Modem Division

Intel suffered a major setback a couple of months ago when Apple and Qualcomm signed the peace. This assumed that the company's 5G modems would not be used on Cupertino's signature phones. A decision that was also the end of this project of the company. Intel wants to sell this division now and it seems that there is an interested buyer that nobody expected: Apple.

Apple Could Buy Intel's Modem Division

It is something that several media already rumored, although so far we do not have an official confirmation about it. But it would be a most curious move on the part of the company.

Intel wants to sell

Intel is not finished being lucky with this division of its 5G modems. Therefore, it is not surprising that the company wants to sell this division, which really does not contribute anything and is making them lose money. Especially since those from Cupertino signed an agreement with Qualcomm, things have not finished going well in this division.

The surprise is that Apple has an interest in buying this division, at least according to what these media say. Because so far neither of the two companies has said anything about these rumors. So we will have to wait to see if there are really negotiations.

Another big question is what plans does the Cupertino company have with this purchase. It is undoubtedly something that generates interest, since somehow it would make them less dependent on suppliers. Something that the company has been looking for for a long time. We will be watching how these negotiations evolve.
