In the disassembly report of the iFixit website, it is confirmed that the iPhone 15 series officially launched by Apple recently all uses Qualcomm'sSnapdragon X70 5G connectivity data chip, so that they have the same level of performance in networking capabilities, rather than adopting differentiated specifications based on processor design.
In fact, all models of the iPhone 14 series launched last year use QualcommSnapdragon X65 5G connectivity data chip, thereby maintaining the same 5G connectivity.
The upgrade to the Snapdragon X70 5G networking data chip means that the 15G download speed of the iPhone 5 series will increase by 14% compared to the iPhone 24 series, but the actual performance will still vary due to the 5G network services provided by different telecom operators and base station specifications.
A lot of people have asked whether the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are still using last years Qualcomm X65 modem or the new X70 seen in the 15 Pro's.
Here's your answer.
Apple didn't just throw last years Pro logic boards into this years baseline models. They upgraded them too. pic.twitter.com/cPB6LJbaFG

At the same time, compared to the Snapdraon X65 5G networking modem, Qualcomm's greater improvement in the Snapdraon X70 5G networking modem is to reduce power consumption and enhance the 5G network carrier aggregation effect, allowing mobile phones to receive signals smoothly even if they are far away from the base station.
Currently Apple and QualcommSigned another 5G networking data chip supply cooperation agreementThis means that Apple will continue to use Qualcomm to provide products until 2026, and it also highlights the progress of Apple's previous plan to build its own 5G network data chips.Not going well.
