The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X65 modem for faster 5G speeds, lower power consumption and improved mmWave support on US models, according to a teardown of the devices shared on YouTube today.
The X65 chip can be seen on the logic board in a teardown of the iPhone 14 Pro. We’re yet to confirm if the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will also have the X65, but all models within a series typically share the same modem.
iPhone 14 Pro teardown confirms inclusion of Qualcomm’s X65 modem
Qualcomm announced the X65 modem in February 2021 with power efficiency improvements, resulting in improved battery life when using 5G. In addition, the X65 modem is the world’s first 10 Gigabit 5G modem and antenna system for smartphones, enabling theoretical data speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second. In May 2021, Qualcomm updated its X65 Snapdragon modem with support for a wider mmWave spectrum.
The power efficiency improvements of both the X65 modem and the A16 Bionic chip contribute to the longer battery life of the iPhone 14 Pro models. A battery test earlier this week claimed that the iPhone 14 Pro Max lasted two hours longer than last year’s iPhone 13 Pro Max. The iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are now arriving at customers.
