At present, many people may not understand that a mobile phone is composed of many parts, why is it so important to have only a small chip? Even if it is as powerful as Huawei, it will be stuck in the lifeblood because of the chip?
Today we will briefly talk about how important the chip is?
In fact, in a mobile phone you buy, whether it is screen driver, audio processing or fingerprint recognition, etc., these are all achieved by relying on chips.
In addition to being used in mobile phones, chips are also widely used in transportation, power, finance, aerospace, energy and other industries. If you can't develop your own chip, then the lifeblood will be in the hands of others.
Now the development of mobile phone homogenization is becoming more and more serious, so the importance of chips is also highlighted. Like Huawei's HiSilicon Kirin chip, Samsung's Orion chip, and Apple's A-series chip, they have all undergone the tempering of time to achieve the current results.
But the question is, is the mobile phone manufacturer really developing very smoothly with its self-developed chip?
Of course not! Huawei's self-developed HiSilicon Kirin chip can not even supply its own high-end products for reasons that are well known.
It is precisely because of Huawei's previous experience that other domestic mobile phone manufacturers have also begun to develop their own chips, such as Xiaomi's surging power, OPPO's Marinaia, Vivo's V1 and so on.
In March 2021, Xiaomi carried a liquid lens and a surging C1 chip on its first folding screen phone. In September 2021, Vivo officially released the self-developed professional imaging chip V1. In December 2021, OPPO released its Mariana X imaging chip.
In fact, the current smart phone industry has entered a relatively stagnant stage of development, product functions and positioning are basically homogeneous, and product forms are basically stereotyped.
Because of this, technology giants such as Apple, Samsung, and Google are looking for new development directions from the source of smartphones. However, this source is the chip, which also explains why in 2021, there will be a boom in self-developed chips in the global mobile phone industry.
When Apple and Samsung are working on self-developed chips, the shortcomings of domestic self-developed chip research and development will immediately appear, and then affect the high-end of domestic mobile phone products, which is why domestic mobile phone manufacturers cannot compete with Apple for market share in the high-end market.
From the single-function chip of the use scenario to the multi-functional chip, to the final Self-developed SoC chip, I think this core-making road is also the road that domestic mobile phone manufacturers have to take!
