- Apple is reportedly thinking about bringing cellular connectivity to Macs and future XR products.
- You might have to wait until 2026 to see the first Macs with this connectivity option.
- The news comes as Apple gears up to launch its first in-house modem.
Apple has been working on its own cellular modem for years now, and it sounds like this component could debut inside the next iPhone SE and the iPhone 17 Air. However, it seems like cellular connectivity could come to more Apple categories.
Bloomberg reports that Apple is exploring the idea of bringing cellular connectivity to its Macs. The iPhone maker is also said to be considering cellular connectivity for future headsets, including follow-ups to the Vision Pro XR headset. If confirmed, these products would join the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch in supporting cellular connections.
