10 years ago, Apple enabled a draft specification of Wi-Fi n through a software update for some iMac and MacBooks. Do you think the 2018 MacBook Pro will get the same treatment for Wi-Fi ax and WPA3?
According to iFixit, the Wi-Fi chip is no longer Broadcom (and hasn't been in MacBooks since 2016), but a proprietary "Apple/Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) 339S00428 Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module" which means we don't have a lot of information about what it can actually support... Or do we?
Edit: Also, according to the comments in the iFixit thread, the exact same Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chip is used in the iMac Pro, yet only the MacBooks support Bluetooth 5
