Includes Mac mini M4 Pro too
Probably the only device that supports WiFi7 is the 16 series mobile phone
I don't know how Apple thinks about this
The clean frequency band of MLO+6G is a great improvement for users living in apartments
But when it comes to connectivity, Apple has been lagging behind others, which is a bit puzzling

Anonymous346 May 27, 2025Qualcomm solutions support it, but other solutions are a little slower to follow up In addition, WIFI7 is actually not of great use in China, but it is better for foreign users

Anonymous347 May 27, 2025Router updates are slow, and a large number of devices are still Wi-Fi-5 standard, so there is no incentive to update at all. Wi-Fi6 is enough to use.

Anonymous348 May 27, 2025In fact, the mainstream is still Wi-Fi 5 and 6, and China has not passed the 6G frequency band...

Anonymous349 May 27, 2025There is no 6GHz frequency band in China, so WiFi 6E and 7 are useless But 6GHz itself is just like that... not much faster. When the broadband at home is still 2Gbps, 6GHz can't run at all, so you have to use Ethernet

Anonymous350 May 27, 2025mac is often half a beat slow. My last mbp13 m1 2020 wifi6 does not support 160MHz bandwidth, and the actual speed cannot be broken by gigabit (very close range)

Poster May 27, 2025@ Anonymous351 Yes, MLO and 4K QAM are very useful In addition, the measured cleanliness of the 6G frequency band is very good for people living in apartments

Anonymous9040 May 27, 2025However, the one on the 16 series is only flavor WiFi7, which does not support 4K QAM, and MLO does not support superimposed EMLSR, and even cuts 320MHz equally around the world.

Anonymous8449 May 27, 2025Come on, MLO still works? How many AP MLOs understand now? Nowadays, who opens aggregation for normal people? Isn't it all separate 2.4 GHz

Anonymous358 May 27, 2025Whole-house Wi-Fi5 passes by, and there is no motivation to upgrade. Gigabit cable is used for internal network transmission, and the bandwidth of wifi5 is enough for external network transmission
