I suspect it's a trade-off for Apple and they concluded that people who might need that can easily hotspot through their phone and thus wouldn't necessarily pay hundreds for a built-in cellular modem that would also require a second cellular plan.
- CPLX 3y agoI’d pay $1,000 for it. Why don’t they make that conclusion about the iPad Pro then? Or any other device? Apple makes a ton of devices that have this capability costing a few hundred bucks it just seems nonsensical. The last time I saw discussion of this people said it had something to do with having to license the chipsets or something but it didn’t seem too compelling of a reason in that context.
- mytailorisrich 3y agoThe reason has to be commercial. Clearly they think that the business case is not strong enough to make it worthwhile.
- hinata08 3y ago> that would also require a second cellular plan. The world isn't NA I would totally pay a second plan for that feature. I already have 2 5G plans at two different carriers, and two phones (I work on Android) And carriers here often offer a secondary SIM for your tablet or something, because it costs nothing and it's a convenience for some customers.
