IT Home reported on July 31 that the source DigiTimes published a blog post yesterday (July 30),It means that Apple’s two flagship models, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, will support Wi-Fi 7 networks, while the other two models will support Wi-Fi 6E networks.

IT Home Note: Wi-Fi 7 is the next-generation Wi-Fi standard. Based on Wi-Fi 6, it introduces technologies such as 320MHz bandwidth, 4096-QAM, Multi-RU, multi-link operation, enhanced MU-MIMO, and multi-AP collaboration.

Wi-Fi 7 provides higher data transmission rates and lower latency, with a peak theoretical data transmission speed of more than 40 Gbps, which is 4 times higher than Wi-Fi 6E.

In addition, Wi-Fi 7, like Wi-Fi 6E, has three communication frequency bands, including a 2.4GHz low-frequency band, and two high-frequency bands of 5GHz and 6GHz.

If Apple really upgrades the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max to support Wi-Fi 7, users will need to upgrade their routers additionally to enjoy the ultimate transmission speed.
