> Nobody is even trying. They all have business strategies that prioritize other things. That's not true. Everyone tried and gave up. The bully here isn't Apple. It's Qualcomm. They hold the modem patents and the modem market. A phone needs a modem. So when Qualcomm offers you a phone SoC that includes a modem do you take it? It's cheaper than you doing your own SoC + external Qualcomm modem and if you try to do your own modem they'll sue you. Back in the days nVidia tried to Tegra but was ultimately forced out by Qualcomm and their shady deals and price fixing. Even Apple tried / is trying with the whole Intel modem fiasco. Samsung tried with Exynos. Ultimately you're still stuck with Qualcomm and its modem so people give up.
