Qualcomm shares study showing Androids beat iPhone 16e on 5G

- A Qualcomm-commissioned report has found that Apple’s C1 modem lags behind Qualcomm’s last two flagship modems.
- The report found that two Android phones with Qualcomm modems consistently outperformed the iPhone 16e and its custom modem.
- The Android phones opened the gap to the iPhone 16e as they moved away from the cell towers.
Apple launched the iPhone 16e earlier this year, and this is a landmark release as it includes the company’s first cellular modem. We’ve already seen reports about its performance, and now a Qualcomm-commissioned study has revealed some (unsurprising) results.
Cellular Insights posted a report comparing two Qualcomm-powered Android phones to the iPhone 16e and its Apple C1 modem. The company tested these phones in New York City in various real-world environments while connected to T-Mobile’s sub-6GHz network. It added that these tests were conducted in “near-, far-, and mid-cell” conditions.
