First, This chip is coming out in 2014, so the iPhone 5S would not be getting it. Second, Apple currently uses Qualcomm chips. Third, Qualcomm has already stated they are coming out with a chip that supports 40 different LTE bands as well as CDMA/TD-SCDMA/TD-LTE/ETC, so that is not the problem. The problem is likely to be from getting the antennas and other parts to support all those bands into the phone.
