Do you still remember last year, when iPhone X with LTE modems from Intel quickly lagged behind those from the Qualcomm workshop? I bet you sure do. Among the users, this discovery caused a great discussion, which he took away Apple a fair amount of criticism. Fortunately, they don't have to worry about that this year. All this year's iPhones are equipped with modems from Intel, and according to new tests, they are comparable in speed to rival Qualcomm. 

A series of tests in which they faced each other iPhone XS Max with Intel modem and Samsung Galaxy Note9 along with Google Pixelem 2 with Qualcomm modems, was conducted by the American portal PC Mag. It managed to find out that the new iPhones beat last year's iPhone X in the LTE speed test. While the "ten" reached 200 Mbit/s in the download speed test under ideal conditions, iPhone XS Max managed almost 400 Mbit/s. The new iPhones can thank three new technologies for the significant increase. These are 4×4 MIMO, QAM and LLA. The first one uses a higher number of antennas to increase the connection speed. The other two are then designed to squeeze the most out of the available data connection in a given location. In the download speed test, the new iPhone the same results as the competition with Qualcomm modems. The implementation of the news is therefore Applu has paid off tremendously. It is a bit surprising, however, that we have only just seen them. The competition has been using these technologies for quite a few months. For example, Samsung used 4×4 MIMO already in Galaxy The S8, which he introduced last year before iPhonem X. 

The new antenna ensures far better results with LTE connections: 

As for testing in adverse conditions, the new one also passed iPhone XS Max excellent. He put his older brother in his pocket again and only slightly lagged behind the competition, which only proves that Intel has managed to significantly improve the quality of its modems over the past year. On the competitor Qualcomm, which is slightly faster in worse conditions, but still does not. The difference in average download speed was between Galaxy Note9 a iPhonem XS Max about 5 Mbit in favor Galaxy Note9. However, where you would have problems with LTE on the iPhone X, you will surf without major restrictions on the iPhone XS.

So if you have been choosing phones based on LTE connection speed and were disappointed that the competition with Android was still slower,onebetter than ever, you can start celebrating. The new iPhones have improved significantly in this regard and offer practically the same as the competition. The blow after Qualcomm, which many feared, has thus been successfully healed in an exemplary manner.
