Apple and Qualcomm suddenly ended their litigation on Tuesday after the former agreed to pay a licensing fee to the latter. The companies also negated the potential for future disputes by entering into an agreement that came into effect on Apple’s birthday (April 1st, 2019). The timing of the deal cannot be emphasized as the Cupertino tech giant prepares to deal with 5G. On that note, it now looks as if Apple has finalized 5G components for the 2020 iPhone. Reports from the Taiwanese supply chain suggest that Apple’s vendors are preparing for production. Take a look below for more details.

Fresh words from Taiwan suggest that Apple has finalized PCB specifications for the 2020 iPhone. The primary beneficiary from this is Taiwan Optoelectronics, which has once again become one of Apple’s primary suppliers of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) components for Apple. It’s believed that Apple is interested in Halogen free substrates for the PCB, and TO’s manufacturing capabilities for the substrates meet Apple’s requirements.
