Apple’s headset is likely to use Wi-Fi 6E, according to Kuo, but this is the first time the technology has been referenced in iPhone 14.
New Delhi: According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 series will be released next year and will include Wi-Fi 6E connection. In his most recent investor note, Kuo hinted that Wi-Fi 6E will be included in the Apple iPhone 14 and the rumoured Apple Mixed Reality headsets. This, according to the TF Securities analyst, will hasten a broader industry migration to the Wi-Fi 6E standard because other manufacturers will be compelled to follow Apple’s lead in adopting the new standard.
Other AR and VR devices from other firms, such as Meta, will also enable Wi-Fi 6E, according to Kuo, who was quoted in a MacRumours story. Wi-Fi 6E, according to Kuo, will be critical in enabling the high-speed wireless transmission required for AR and VR experiences. Kuo claims that in 2022, 2023, and 2024, head-mounted display devices will support Wi-Fi 6/6E, Wi-Fi 6E/7, and Wi-Fi 7, although it’s unclear if this is related to Apple’s product.
Apple’s headset is likely to use Wi-Fi 6E, according to Kuo, but this is the first time the technology has been referenced in iPhone 14. There were rumours that the iPhone 13 series will come with Wi-Fi 6E before it was released, however those rumours were never confirmed.
Wi-Fi 6E is a step up from Wi-Fi 6, with greater performance, lower latency, and quicker data speeds, as well as the ability to extend into the 6GHz range. This translates to more airspace, which implies more bandwidth and fewer interference.
