Wireless enthusiasts are happy to declare that Wi-Fi 7 is no longer a dream but rather a reality. Last week, the international consortium of the Wi-Fi Alliance announced the release of the network’s newest generation and according to the words of the association’s president and CEO Kevin Robinson, the users will see increased speed, efficiency, and reliability of Wi-Fi that enables them to go beyond the usual possibilities. Which in turn establishes one of the most intriguing speculations about the iPhone 16.
In the previous few months, Haitong International Securities analysis Jeff Pu revealed that Iphone 16 Pro fashions shall be equipped with Wi-Fi 7 and a quicker 5G modem; the Iphone 16 and Iphone 16 Plus versions may have a Wi-Fi 6E chip and no enchancment to the 5G modem.
Future iPhone 16 Pro May Come With Wi-Fi 7 .
Some rumors claim that iPhone 16 Pro with Wi-Fi 7 technology will become reality, if so, it will be a major leap forward from the current technology. Wi-Fi 6E technically supports speeds up to 9 Gbps, but actual speeds will be slower; Wi-Fi 7 will have maximum speeds of around 46 Gbps. This is five times faster that the current generation of wi-fi.
Where the currently available Wi-Fi 6E standard is nothing more than an extension of Wi-Fi 6 with the addition of the 6 GHz band, Wi-Fi 7 brings some more notable enhancements. Another considerable difference between Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 is transfer speeds: the former can reach approximately 9 Gbps while the latter is able to provide transfer up to 46 Gbps. It is five times faster than the current generation of wi-fi.
The other advantage is in the regulation of interference and signal jamming. Wi-Fi 7 devices can also support spatial multiplexing that allows devices to send and receive data on multiple radio links operating at various frequencies – this also contributes to meeting higher rates and lower latency.
I guess it will still take some time – from the announcement – for Wi-Fi 7 to become huge as the first routers supporting the new standard have just been revealed. The overall addition, as per the expectations of the Wi-Fi Alliance, to the market is approximately 233 million devices by 2024 and 2. One billion+ devices by 2028. First smartphones, then PCs, tablets and APs will be affected.
Virtual and augmented reality (AR/VR) equipment as well as space computing like the Vision Pro, therefore, will be among the expanding markets for Apple, while it is expected to remain so for the meantime, in the case of the former.
Those predictions that had been already anticipated as a superb year for Apple to launch extraordinary devices are enhancing. By this announcement it has again become evident that iPhone 16 Pro will offer many new features as compared to earlier anticipated figures which were even less than the anticipated iPhone 15.
