Apple is reportedly developing the M6 processor, which is expected to feature a built-in, in-house modem.
The integration of a modem into the Apple Silicon chip could enable features like GPS, satellite support, and always-on internet access for future Macs.
The M6 processor is anticipated to be launched in 2026 or 2027, following the release of the M4 and M5 processors.
If the built-in modem becomes a reality, it could potentially benefit not only Macs but also iPads in terms of always-on connectivity.
