Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17e might feature the company’s first-generation C1-series cellular modem, but it will reportedly lack the N1 wireless chip, potentially affecting Thread support. The iPhone 18 Pro, on the other hand, is still in a decision phase between using the C1X and C2 modems. While the N1 chip is expected to be included in the Pro models, the final choice of modem remains uncertain. The iPhone 17e is anticipated for a spring 2026 release, with the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max expected in the fall.
Are the iPhone 17e and iPhone 18 Pro modem specs revealed?
