★ 两款调制解调器的故事

对我而言,蜂窝网络的下载速度和信号接收几乎已不再是问题,但电池续航表现仍然是个令人头疼的难题。尽管调制解调器技术不断进步,功耗管理却始终未能跟上,成为当前移动设备体验中最大的短板。

背景速读

- **John Gruber** 是知名科技博客 Daring Fireball 的作者,以深度分析苹果公司及其产品生态而闻名。他的文章常引发科技圈广泛讨论。 - **Cellular modem(蜂窝调制解调器)** 是手机里负责连接移动网络的芯片。苹果从 iPhone 14 开始尝试自研调制解调器,旨在摆脱对高通(Qualcomm)的依赖,但进展一直不顺,多次延期。 - 本文标题“两个调制解调器的故事”很可能对比苹果自研芯片与高通方案的差别。Gruber 认为:在 5G 速度已经足够快的今天,**续航才是瓶颈**——调制解调器的功耗大小直接影响用户实际体验。 - 这篇评论是在苹果自研调制解调器历经多年挫折后发布的。此前有报道称苹果已放弃自研高端调制解调器,转而继续采购高通芯片,引发对苹果芯片战略的质疑。
