Apple is said to be making its own 5G modem in order to replace the Qualcomm technology that handles cellular communications in an iPhone. Apple recently started replacing Intel processors with its own chips in its Mac computer line, so this move isn't unprecedented.

The company frequently sources parts from more than one manufacturing partner to ensure timely delivery and quality.
