The iPhone 5 will reportedly use a Qualcomm baseband and an IC substrate from Kinsus, according to DigiTimes.

Kinsus Interconnect Technology could break into the supply chain of Apple's iPhone 5 as the new smartphone will adopt Qualcomm's baseband chipsets, which use Kinsus IC substrates, according to a Chinese language Apple Daily report.
