Apple Applies For A Trademark Of Bald Eagle 5G Network Services

Last year there were rumors, Apple will not release a smartphone that supports the 5G network until 2020. The 5G iPhone would use an Intel modem, but Apple is not yet satisfied with the quality of the 8161 chip. This would make a launch in 2019 unachievable.

However, at the end of last year, Bloomberg reported that Apple is developing its own modem, this way the company does not have to wait for Intel. This rumor was confirmed earlier this week by Reuters. The following trademark may have something to do with this surprising development.
