Apple is reportedly creating its own Wi-Fi 7 chips for iPhone 17 series and future products. The decision could improve device integration and efficiency and may reduce reliance on external suppliers.
New Delhi, November 3: Apple is reportedly developing its own Wi-Fi 7 chips for the upcoming iPhone 17 and future models. The development of these chips suggests that Apple is looking to gain more control over its hardware and, potentially, leading to better integration and efficiency in its devices.
The new technology from Apple is expected to provide its users with a reliable and efficient connection. Reports also indicate that the iPhone 17 Pro will likely feature a new button design. The single button is likely to take the place of the volume buttons and the Action button. The change could simplify the way users interact with their devices.

As per a report of Gizmochina, Apple is working on self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chips for its upcoming products, including the highly anticipated iPhone 17 series. Reports suggest that these new chips will be produced using TSMC’s N7 manufacturing process. Taking this step can benefit Apple as it aims to strengthen the integration of its products and decrease its dependence on third-party suppliers. The tech giant hopes to increase its control over its technology and improve how its devices work together.
The project has apparently been in the works since 2021. The change in strategy is anticipated to reduce costs and enhance how well Apple’s devices work together. The new iPads that Apple plans to release in 2025 might also include these developed Wi-Fi chips. Now, Apple depends on Broadcom for its Wi-Fi chips. Apple Acquires Photo Editing App Pixelmator.
