On the evening of February 28, at the 2022 Mobile World Congress (MWC 2022), Honor's new generation flagship Magic 4 series ushered in the world premiere and will be released in many countries and regions around the world. The starting price is about 6337 yuan (standard version) and 7747 yuan (Pro version) in euros.
As Honor's high-end flagship to impact the global market in 2022, the Honor Magic4 series brings the Magic series "further" in design, performance, screen and privacy. Some selling points can first refer to the following figure (anyway, hd screen, fast charging, Snapdragon 8 these mainstream flagships should have it):
In addition, the domestic conference of the Honor Magic 4 series will be officially held on March 17, in addition to the two Magic4 series products that have been released, there are rumors that there are special versions such as Pro+ or the best version.
In addition, the domestic price will be lower than the known European version of the pricing, anyway, just look at the hardware parameters, the honor Magic 4 series has surpassed the Huawei P50 series to become a veritable flagship machine.
Energy Jun: From the hardware parameters, product pricing and even publicity, Honor mobile phones have the momentum of surpassing Huawei. Now it is difficult to say who is the real Huawei inheritor, but can the new glory without the Hongmeng system and the Kirin chip really bear the name of the domestic high-end mobile phone? Will you spend 6,000 or 7,000 yuan on Honor's flagship products?
MediaTek officially released Tianji 8000 and Tianji 8100
5nm process, AI super competitive products 72%
Positioning the flagship market of Tianji 9000 has just begun to commercial landing, MediaTek today officially released a new generation of Tianji 8000 series for the high-end market, including the first batch of Tianji 8000, Tianji 8100.
The core specifications of the two are exactly the same, the difference is only that the latter is more frequent, and naturally more favored, a bit like the original Tianji 1000, Tianji 1000+.
Tianji 8000 series uses TSMC 5nm manufacturing process, the CPU is eight cores, including four A78, four A55, and 4MB L3 cache, the GPU is a six-core Mali-G610, and there is also a fifth-generation AI processor APU 580, including two performance cores and a general purpose core.
The Redmi K50 universe will debut the Tianji 8100, and the realme GT Neo3 will also carry the 8100.
Energy Jun: The competitor of Tianji 9000 is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8gen1, and the Tianji 8000 series released today is benchmarked against Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. This is also the main flagship product of Qualcomm on the market at present, if it is really as advertised by MediaTek, it can be achieved with stronger performance and lower power consumption under the process of TSMC, then this year it can be said that MediaTek has fully crushed Qualcomm's turnaround year. The only pity is that MediaTek's products are not cheap! Hope it's worth it!
Hammer Technology's 50 million shares were thawed!
Luo Yonghao's return to the technology industry is expected to respond
Earlier today, according to the information displayed by the enterprise investigation, the 50 million shares of Hammer Technology were unfrozen, and at this point, the company's equity freezing information has been completely cleared.
At present, Luo Yonghao forwarded the Weibo of "Make a Friend Live Room" and made a clear response to the concerns of netizens about "when will Lao Luo return to the technology industry".
According to the response information, the 50 million shares that were unfrozen this time were cases arising from the period of Hammer Technology's operation of the mobile phone business, and after the enforcement case was concluded, the court lifted the equity measures.
However, at present, Luo Yonghao is still repaying the remaining part of the debt for the company as planned, so it will still take a little time to return.
Due to the huge losses in the mobile phone business, luo Yonghao began a long road to debt repayment from April 2020, and in January this year, Luo Yonghao's executor information and restricted high consumption information were cleared, and now, the equity freeze of the hammer subsidiary has finally been cleared.
According to Luo Yonghao's previous statement, it will officially return to the technology industry this spring, which shows that the "little time" of this response will indeed not be too long.
However, Luo Yonghao has also made it clear before that he will not return to the mobile phone industry, and said that the era of mobile phones has passed and will be seen again on the next generation platform.
Energy Jun: At present, the hottest platform is naturally AR/VR/meta-universe, will Lao Luo enter this field? Or will you build cars?
Apple, AMD and other companies 5nm orders broke out
TSMC worked as a temporary worker at the 3nm factory
Only a few companies in the world have mastered advanced wafer foundry technology, but the situation of Samsung is not optimistic, due to the yield of suspected fraud is still under internal investigation, TSMC's chip foundry has been reliable, the bad news is that Apple, AMD, MediaTek and other customers 5nm orders are too much, TSMC had to first temporarily pull out the 3nm factory to 5nm expansion.
This year, a large number of chips will upgrade the 5nm process or an improved version of the 4nm process, Apple has M1/M1 Pro/M1 Max, and the M2 series will soon be mass-produced, and the production capacity demand is very high.
In addition to Apple's VVVIP customer, AMD will also have 5nm Zen4 architecture processors and 5nm RDNA3 architecture GPU chips this year, and they are also one of the most important 5nm process customers.
MediaTek today released the Tianji 8100/8000 processor, which is also TSMC's 5nm process, and the amount of chips is not low, NVIDIA will also launch a 5nm RTX 40 series graphics card this year, and prepay a large number of deposit locking products in advance, which should not be underestimated.
There is also Qualcomm, although it mainly relied on Samsung OEM before, but Samsung's 5nm and 4nm process situation has also been seen, before qualcomm also rumored that qualcomm also transferred the 4nm Snapdragon 8 Plus to TSMC, and the follow-up will further increase the proportion of TSMC's foundry.
These customers have high requirements for the capacity of the 5nm process, in fact, there is news that these customers have booked all the production capacity of TSMC from 7nm to 4nm, which shows the scarcity of cash capacity.
In order to meet the customer's requirements, digitimes reported that TSMC has decided to vacate the second phase of NANKE Fab18, which was originally scheduled to be used for the 3nm plant, and let it act as a temporary worker for the production of the 5nm process to support the 5nm process.
Energy Jun: The good guy looks like the world's top chips are waiting for the scene of TSMC production!
