    Drop support for frequency bands and older mobile standards not used in China. Don’t worry about battery life.

    Works great for Huawei, no good for Apple.

      No I’m talking about the 5g transmitters and receivers they sold in the USA before we banned them

        Loads of companies make the tower equipment, including Huawei, Cisco, Nokia… in those cases, size, cool running and low power draw aren’t as important. Apple gives no shits about that part of the industry.

          Power draw for cellular tower equipment has become a major concern and product differentiator for mobile operators. I work in telco sector.

          AFAIK Apple develops their modem in Germany. The initial effort to get into this market is tremendous. After that it’s incremental improvements, but you must start somewhere.
