According to reports, Apple will use the Intel 8161 chipset for the 5G iPhone in 2020. If this is being worked on and everything is okay then Intel will be chosen for the iPhone Modem. Significantly, Intel is working on the chipset named 8160, which will be used for prototype and testing.
Fast Company has quoted sources as saying that Apple has also talked to MediaTech for the 5G modem. But it is being described as Plan B. MediaTek is also working on the 5G modem, but generally this company makes processors for smartphones. The legal battle between Apple and Qualcomm is on, so there is no possibility of interaction with Qualcomm for 5G chipsets. At the moment, Apple has not issued any statement regarding this report.
