Qualcomm is persona-non-grata to Apple at this point.
Apple doesn’t want to buy Qualcomm chips at any price, if it can get replacements from anywhere else. It wants reliable partners, and if possible, to contract manufacture its own baseband chip designs, without paying more to Qualcomm in ostensibly FRAND fees for chips it designs itself than just buying the chips from Qualcomm.
