The Intel XMM modems are a series of 4G LTE, LTE Advanced, LTE Advanced Pro and 5G modems found in many phones, tablets, laptops and wearables (sans 5g-technology) developed by Intel Mobile Communications.[1] Intel Mobile Communications was formed after Intel acquired the Wireless Solutions (WLS) division of Infineon early in 2011 for US$1.4 billion.[2]

On April 16, 2019, Apple and Qualcomm reached a settlement which included Apple paying an unspecified amount, entering into a six-year patent licensing agreement, and a multi-year agreement for Qualcomm to provide hardware to Apple.[3] Shortly after Intel announced they will exit the 5G smartphone modem business to focus 5G efforts on network infrastructure.[4]

On July 25, 2019, Apple and Intel announced an agreement for Apple to acquire Intel Mobile Communications' smartphone modem business for US$1 billion.[5] Intel will continue to develop modems for non-smartphones such as PCs, Internet of things and autonomous vehicles.

On November 25, 2019, MediaTek and Intel announced a partnership to bring 5G to PCs in 2021.[6][7]
