As per a report, the iPhone 15 lineup could support faster Wi-Fi 6E. However, analysts did not specify if the feature will be added to all models or just limited to the Pro models.
Previously, Twitter user @Wade Penner spotted an unreleased MacBook Pro in the Canadian regulatory database. As per the shared screenshot of the filing, Apple’s new laptop will also support Wi-Fi 6E like the next-generation 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro with the M2 chip.
iPhone 15 lineup could possibly support Wi-Fi 6E, which can operate on over 6GHz brands
According to a research note shared by Barclays analysts Blayne Curtis and Tom O’Malley, the iPhone 15 models will support Wi-Fi 6E. So far has added Wi-Fi 6E support to a handful of devices, while iPhone 14 models remain limited to standard Wi-Fi 6.
Wi-Fi 6E also operates on bands with over 6GHz, allowing faster wireless speeds, lower latency, and less signal interference, while Wi-Fi 6 only operates on the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. The device must be connected to a Wi-FI 6E router, which is available from brands like TP-Link, Asus, and Netgear to take the advantage of benefits Wi-FI 6E offers.
Previously, there were also rumors for iPhone 13 to support faster Wi-Fi 6E, but Apple failed to materialize. However, this time the company has already started rolling out Wi-Fi 6E support to its latest devices, so there are possibilities that the iPhone 15 will also support the standard.
Apple’s all four iPhone 15 models will feature Dynamic Island and USB-C port, while iPhone 15 Pro models will use solid-state volume, power buttons, and more. The company is expected to introduce the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max in September.
Apple has shared more details about Wi-Fi 6E in a support document.
